Question(That), please. Hi, there Could you help me with a question? You can use "that" in sentences like "This month's attack was much different than THAT of last year", can't you? Would it sound odd to use it in this paragraph? "If this month's agreement has seemingly reduced the risks of a nuclear conflict on the same scale as THAT WHICH the Cold War saw, it has surely increased the diffuse dangers of essentially rampant violence." Why can't I use "that" here? "(...) reduced the risks of a nuclear conflict on the same scale as THAT(that SCALE) which the Cold War saw"? Please, help me. Please
