    Well, given the uncertainties of measurements (including pool volume, test kit accuracy, etc.) it doesn't really matter whether you used 5.7%, 6% or 6.3% in BleachCalc since you are going to end up with reasonably close-to-target amounts of chlorine for any of these. The error between 5.7% and 6.3% is only 10% and I don't think anyone is trying to target their FC levels to be that accurate so even though I present the technically accurate information, you can ignore such dribble for practical purposes.

    Richard,

    LOL --- Your dribble represents a very important lesson in chemistry that most people are learning ---- they just don't know it yet

    Keep it coming, I, for one, read every one of your posts & since I have found myself saying, "Richard had an interesting tidbit about that" or " I saw a chart that Richard made --- somewhere" ----I now print most for further review.

    Richard,

    Don't get me wrong - I LOVE your posts - they are so full of logic (which I like). Sometimes my brain cannot process it all - and this post I was actually laughing - because it is SO you

    I knew you were kidding, but just wanted you to make sure you knew the information wasn't critically important and was being funny about it (in my own way). Though I wasn't trolling for compliments, they are always appreciated.

    Thanks,
    Richard
