Is it true that some chlorine changes color so a pink cloud follows them around? Shaming works too. [show less]

Check out these links for more info:

(this link is from the Berkeley Medical Journal and includes this: "Though many have been conditioned to think of urine as dirty, quite the opposite is true. Except in the case of a urinary tract or kidney infection, urine fresh from the urethra is sterile, devoid of any pathogens. Urine is 95 percent water, with less than five percent urea, vitamins, minerals, enzymes, hormones, proteins, antibodies, and other beneficial pharmacological agents.
Contrary to popular belief, urine is actually a by-product of blood filtration and not waste filtration. Medically, it is referred to as plasma ultrafiltrate. It is a purified derivative of the blood itself, made by the kidneys whose principal function is regulation of all the elements and their concentrations in the blood. Nutrient-filled blood passes through the liver where toxins are removed to be excreted as solid waste. Eventually, this purified blood undergoes a more extensive filtering process in the kidneys, where excess components not usable at that time by the body are collected in the form of the sterile, watery solution that is urine.
Far from being harmful, urine contains known healing agents. Clinical studies have proven that the thousands of critical body chemicals and nutrients that end up in urine reflect the individual bodys functions. When re-utilized, these chemicals and nutrients act as natural vaccines, antibacterial, antiviral and anticarcinogenic agents as well as hormone balancers and allergy relievers." [show less]

Just out of curiosity... How do you know they peed in the pool?
Yeah, no kiddin'! I mean, if you could SEE the pee...Now that's just crossing the line.
If you feel a sudden warmth, I'd be worried.
