X-Message-Number: 21192 Date: Sun, 16 Feb 2003 22:03:19 -0800 (PST) From: Doug Skrecky <> Subject: 82'nd update on fly longevity experiments This is the 82'nd update of my fly longevity experiments. Average temperature was 21.7 C during this run. Here I test some more beverages from the local Chinatown. I used a rather old breeding bottle for this run, which probably had a lot of old and diseased flies in it. As a consequence no flies lived beyond 65 days, despite the rather low temperature. There was nothing of interest in this small run, aside from the fact of poor overall survival.
