Thanks all for the input
Ok, I can not link worth a damn. (But I figured Bill Gates could probably use a little more business - I try to help out the small business owner when possible
tmmort, thanks for supplying the link I failed to create.
Evan, Thanks for the input. Did this, and the thread tmmort made accesible, answer your pm to me? (IMHO - you are prooving yourself to be a key member of this forum, I've said the same thing about duraliegh. If it means anything, I think you and Dave would make great moderators, should Ben feel it's necessary to have more ) (I'm fairly sure you're right about the 'parent co')
Dave, my step-brother and his family live in Durham, if I can think of a reason to go visit, I'll let you know - hopefully we could meet, even if the drinks were few, I would at least like to shake your hand and say 'Hi' in person. What doesn't sit well with me with what you passed on, is that the chlorine is 'locked' (as per the 'Best guess'). Albeit, the water will eventually get 'shocked' by the cell, but what happens with the water that has a virulent glob of puss until it hits the cell? I can see that the water is being 'shocked' when it passes through the cell, but WHY have the cya so high?? With a SWCG [], you are cutting out the middle man if you used just bleach, but with a BBB program,I would park my cya @ 25 - 40 ppm, why does a swg need 2X the cya?

Anyway, back to my b*tching.
I started this thread yesterday @ 5:30 (y'all can see the 'post time' for it) Not only can't I link, but it takes me hours to compose a post, and I still can't spell I 'lost' 3 drafts, before I posted - here's some that got lost:

The Ocean Breeze claimes to make the water 'softer' and 'less irritating'. (Remember that this stuff is for SALT pools). The salt water itself does this, will they claim next that their product makes the water 'wet'???? These nice folks have the audacity to also market thier own soda ash... to be used to raise the pH of the water? (When I remember that "THE INDUSTRY" doesn't follow Ben's advice, it almost makes sense, but with their requirement to add 3/4 lb per lb of their product (used to keep algae out or make the pool 'sparklier', you'd think that someone would realise that the borates raise the pH)) I'm suprised that the male members of their board of directors can sit comfortaby (think ram sheep at the ag fair)
Again, thanks to all who viewed and answered my original post here, I think I'm done, but who knows (thanks for letting me vent some!!)
