I think that's an absolutely brilliant suggestion!

We go away for 6 weeks every August and don't have anyone to care for the pool in even the most minimalist way. I would love to have someone whom I 'know' from one of the pool forums check on it now and then. There are many ways people have devised to manage their pools during an absence but there's nothing that beats a little personal attention by someone who shares our maintenance philosophies and knows how to do a Taylor test.

I would certainly participate in such a proposal.
