60 There was a swimming pool in Auschwitz, hence it could not have been an extermination camp. (Holocaust: Leuchter)

converted to a swimming pool which was used by the camp's staff.
Other means of entertainment for the SS personnel existed - a band
composed of prisoners, and a brothel. How this "proves" that
Auschwitz was not an extermination center is beyond the author of
this text.
