Apr 20, 2019 at 2:53 | comment | added | user344551 | @JasonBassford OK, got it. Misread then. Thanks for pointing this out. | |
Apr 20, 2019 at 2:52 | comment | added | Jason Bassford | If I understand the original comment, it's that the part in bold wasn't (technically) a single sentence. It wasn't a request to remove the bold text—but to rephrase your description of it. | |

Apr 20, 2019 at 2:51 | comment | added | user344551 | @JasonBassford I will add in the bold immediately. Somebody suggested I remove it. | |
Apr 20, 2019 at 2:49 | comment | added | Jason Bassford | What sentence? You haven't specified anything at all. I see that, at one point, you had something in bold. Why in the world did you remove that? Without knowing what specific text concerns you, there is no way of answering this. You've also "invalidated" the current answers—because they are all making assumptions about the part that's confusing, even though you no longer say what's confusing. Either put the bold back in place, or separate out the specific text into its own smaller quote. | |

Apr 20, 2019 at 2:01 | comment | added | Nigel J | "The fumes from decades of gridlock have only worsened the damage... “Pollution is the biggest culprit"' : culprit of what? of the fumes? (Clearly not "of the damage" since they only "worsened" it). This person does not know what 'culprit' means. They think it means 'victim' hence the confusion. | |

Apr 19, 2019 at 22:18 | comment | added | user344551 | @WeatherVane Thank you very much. This makes me feel much better. For reference, here is the Q on Skeptics, so you don't have to search for it. Feel free to take a look. | |
Apr 19, 2019 at 22:17 | comment | added | Weather Vane | @Barry Harrison I believe so, and I also think that "smci on Skeptics" is the one who is sloppy (in his reading and interpretion of the passage). | |
Apr 19, 2019 at 22:13 | comment | added | user344551 | @WeatherVane Thank you for the comment. I have removed the bold. I am wondering. Is the quote by Philippe Villeneuve saying that pollution is the biggest reason for the damage? | |

Apr 19, 2019 at 18:01 | comment | added | Weather Vane | The bolded sentence is perfectly clear. Traffic fumes are the biggest reason for the damage, beyond that already caused by the weather and aging. Bolding two disconnected sentences does not join them. | |
