To the people who have not noticed a much difference or have had their
tomatoes go bad instead of ripening:

If they were refrigerated on their way to, or at the store from which
you bought them, then the damage is already done.

If they went bad that is because they were previously refrigerated.
This damages the tomatoes and they will usually rot instead of ripen.
