I believe you need to have multiple line breaks between lines, I also appreciate the comment. I originally agreed with the other poster, but your comment is way better. Especially for having no context :D
# Call foo_bar only on the 4th loop iteration to handle the weirdness of calculating taxes for California
# Call foo_bar only on the 4th iteration because in California widget tax # (1st iteration) doesn't apply at all, foo tax (2nd iter.) only applies # for B2B transactions (this is not one), bar tax (3rd iter.) only applies # for alcohol and this subsystem is not called for alcohol sales. But VAT # (4th iteration) does apply.
