It still suffers from the problem: the "only" is attached to the wrong
thing. See http://webster.commnet.edu/grammar/modifiers.htm for a
short discussion of the issue. If you really think that this is clear
enough even with "only" in the wrong place, well, go ahead. I just
point out things I think need fixing. You don't have to agree with me
about all (or even any) of them; it's your document, not mine. :)
