"\#" is a _groff_ comment, not mom's.  Mom shouldn't care.  If she
does, she needs to be chastised, but I think she's safe.  The only
time I use anything different is when I want an "in-line" comment.
E.g.,

  .MY_MACRO ARG ARG \" this is a silly example

As for the blank line at the top of the file, I don't think mom cares.
I just tried adding a blank line to one of my mom files, and there was
no change.  Of course, I didn't have any PS or PDF images in it, so it
wasn't really a good test.
