Shell I use CLOB column?

I need to store character data of size up to 64K.
Is it a good case for using CLOB column? - I was thinking
that CLOB was designed for much larger sized data, but on
the other hand, there doesn't seem to be good alternative -
VARCHAR is not large enough and breaking it up into several
records to use VARCHAR looks ugly.



Please advise.
