    2.5 years of Sutro tests chart comparing to other methods.

    This is a bit unsolicited, but I have spent a few days lurking around and reading up on all the stuff I have missed since I have been away and realized I had a bit of data that might be useful to someone.

    Verifiaction of "CSI correction" thought process

    Hello again, so my CSI has crept up and I have been playing around with pool math and see that PH and TA have a pretty good effect on CSI .
