Sorry for the hijack but it reminded me of a time in my youth. We got to a cheesy motel in the Mohavie desert in the middle of summer, sign said POOL! That pool was a color towards a few shades of green! I noticed a bottle of tidy-bowl blue under the sink and tossed it in the pool that evening. Wow we were surprised how wonderful that pool looked the next morning, and we all took a cooling swim. It is funny what a bottle of bleach and bluing will do. I wonder what the manager of the place thought had transpired?
