    What about the containers of 10% pool store chlorine which is sodium hypochlorite? Bleach is 6% sodium hypochlorite. What does he say to that?

    Plain and simple - the owner is an idiot!

    Everything in large enough quantities causes some health ailment. Chlorine has been used for centuries and is one of the base building blocks of modern life. If chlorine causes cancer we all better stop drinking water.

    The sad thing is people go into his store every day asking for advice...

    Next time your there, give him this link warning about Dihydrogen Monixide Levels in pools.

    http://www.dhmo.org/facts.html

    Maybe he'll pass it on and his clientel will realize the value of his advice.

    Correct me if I'm wrong, but is that a parody site?
    Dihydrogen = H2
    Minoxide = O
