X-Message-Number: 25820 Date: Fri, 18 Mar 2005 18:29:11 -0800 (PST) From: Doug Skrecky <> Subject: 169'th update on fly longevity experiments This is the 169'th update of my fly longevity experiments. Average temperature was 20.8 C during this run. Estimated maximal longevity using the formula (363 - T*11.2) is 130 days. Honeybush tea offered an advantage in run #166. This run further investigates this tea. It now appears that the previous results were a chance finding.
