    Nice analysis. Have you considered writing to the editor of the various publications quoted above refuting some of the details of the study, or formally conducting your own and publishing the results?

    Just remember "Man Bites Dog" is a much better story than "Dog Bites Man"

    I wasn't really refuting the studies -- just explaining them and their context relative to residential pools. However, some of the news reports were either exaggerated or misleading. There are already some letters coming from other organizations. Since I am just a pool homeowner, I would have no credibility, unlike others such as NSPF, APSP, etc. who have posted comments or given quotes.

    BTW, I gather that being raised on Mother's Milk leads to cancer, but, then again, so does being bottle-fed on formula.
