Subject: 216'th update on fly longevity experiments

     This is the 216'th update of my fly longevity experiments. Average
 temperature was 23.6 C during this run. Estimated maximal longevity using
 the formula (363 - T*11.2) is 98 days.
     This run retests bearlic, butyrate, dilantin, and methionine. There
 was nothing of interest except for the prolonged longevity of one
 dilantin doped fly. Although this is almost certainly just a chance
 finding, further testing of dilantin has been scheduled.
