So the question of which we should use, which or that, in any situation is something that is prone to hyper-flexibility. Thank God! The restrictive/non-restrictive rule (I hear you, musick!) is pretty clear, but there're still times when one or the other just sounds awkward even if it's the correct usage grammatically.
And sometimes, neither sound right. And I could never rememebr if there was a grammatical edict that would help simplify the decision. So, yeah, what Faldage says...if it sounds funny, the hell with it.
Which that or which is it proper to use
When a which or that is that which you'll chose?
