How does one know when a pool becomes dangerous to swim in?

There have been some studies done by MIT in conjunction with the government
Consumer Protection Agency. They found many times that a pool is dangerous
to swim in.

1. When there is no water
2. In a thunder storm
3. When the water is frozen
4. If a shark is present
5. If an alligator is in it
6. When you don't know how to swim and the water is deep
7. When you are drunk

8. Thin layer of ice present. I'd check this for you, but it's a bit too
warm at the moment.
9. When cover is installed on water.
10. When siding is the pool's construction material.

11. When the owner is or his neighbor is a troll. Trolls cant swim!
