   If it is 60%, why multiply by 0.7?   
      
   I'll take a measurement and report it back here. It may take some time   
   as the pool is really milky now. I'll wait a day before measuring the depth.   
      
   If I had proper equipment, I would filter the water and treat the ppt   
   with acid to see if it is carbonate.
