Subject: 117'th update on fly longevity experiments

    This is the 117'th update of my fly longevity experiments. Average
temperature was 25.2 C during this run. Estimated maximal longevity using
the formula (363 - T*11.2) is 81 days.
    None of the raw vegetables extracts here tested increased average
survival. Bitter melon appeared to be mildly toxic. Unfortunately the
butternut squash 33% bottle was accidently destroyed.
