Is that the stuff that weighs two tons as you tried to tell everyone
here a year or so ago? Remember? Then when I called you out on it, you
said that was with the water added?? Remember that? Remember when I
proved to you that a yard of concrete WITH water was only approx. a ton
and a half?
Do you want me to put you in touch with my in-laws so that you can get
your pool done without getting screwed?

Concrete here is less than $90 right now.


Cali Bill's pool is more likely one of those Dolfino vinyl mushroom above
ground types.

Oh, no! He'll tell you that it's the best pool ever built anywhere in
the world! It's built with that special concrete that weighs two tons a
yard! Carbon fiber reinforcing, no doubt. Semi-precious stone course
aggregate, with fine aggregate being sand shipped from the Sahara just
for him, and water from Alaska's most pristine glacier runoff. The
cement (although he's claimed here in error that concrete IS cement) is
made from the best clinker in the world, and has been tested to ensure
the gypsum content is at 5% but not exceeding in order to obtain a
proper set time. Every chemical, and every piece of hardware is the
best money can buy, lest he be labeled a "cheap *******".
