Seems like it would be water-soluble by definition.

Heh, supposedly the more chlorine heavy a pool smells, the more pee is in it.

Anyhoot, if your skin is feeling puffy and burn-y, try an antihistamine or a homemade vitamin c spray. (suggestions from here: http://www.marathonswimmers.org/forum/discussion/402/chlorine-problems-skin-hair-and-lungs/p1 )

(it turns out I don't know how to make links :( )

So random thought, I've been getting iced coffee at McDonald's every day, and I get it black with no sugar. The price board lists calories, and it lists the calorie range from 80 to I believe 270, but it's 80 that bugged me, because coffee with just ice should have no calories (or some negligible amount, like 5 or 10). Surely enough, I went online and looked up the calorie count and found out that 80 is with sugar. So what I don't get is, why don't they put the calorie range starting at 0? People can and do order it with nothing added, even if they have to specify to get it, so why advertise your product as having more calories than it has?

pwhodges:
On the url thing, note that the url following the = sign must not be in quotes.  This is different in some other forum software, so is a somewhat common mistake.

Random thought: Espresso without sugar has more calories than filter coffee without sugar, as the high extraction pressure solves more of the coffee oils in the coffee than with a low pressure filter extraction.

Why should coffee have no calories?
