I know the father, mother and deceased child mentioned in this story.  There's is a major cryptosporidium outbreak in the Dallas Fort Worth
area - it is Metroplex wide  - please DO NOT let your kids swim until this crisis is resolved.

Urgent? This story has been out for over a week.

URGENT: Residents of Hiroshima take cover!
My mind is a raging torrent, flooded with rivulets of thought cascading into a waterfall of creative alternatives.
Stay thirsty my friends.

Rosemary died yesterday.  Thanks for making fun of someone I care about who died. <this part deleted>

Very sorry about the loss of this child. How ever don't wish stuff like that on any one.

Krypto is nasty. I'm a manager at a waterpark north of DFW just outside the area. Luckily we keep Chlorine at 2-3.5 ppm inside and 4 to 6 ppm outside. PLUS we Irradiate the water with these awsome UV lamps that get installed after the sand element filters. Kills everything... We get people asking about Krypto everyday now. Gets annoying. As long as you follow the correct procedures and shock the water after each "fecal incident" you're good to go within 45 minutes.

Thanks man...  She was a beautiful kid - and she has a twin brother.  I'm just trying to make sense of it.

Yeah you're right... I don't wish this on you RPM.  I deleted the nasty part of what I said.  Does not change my opinion of you for having said what you said however.

Brother, this IS NOT the place to go looking for sympathy.

That being said: I hope the situation where you live gets resolved immediately!

I'm not looking for sympathy - my kid did not die - my friend's did.

All I'm trying to do is let the word out so other parents in the immediate area can avoid this.

BTW HTC is located in the DFW Metroplex - which is why I brought this up in the first place.

In fact - please stop posting any and all comments about this thread - just read the subject - if you live in the DFW area - keep your kids out of public pools until this crisis is resolved.  Lets keep it at that and move on.
