Subject: 231'st update on fly longevity experiments

     This is the 231'st update of my fly longevity experiments. Average
 temperature was 24.5 C during this run. Estimated maximal longevity using
 the formula (363 - T*11.2) is 89 days.
     This run tests a variety of new items, including deer antler velvet,
 which is supposed to provide some IGF-1.
     No significant positive results were noted in this run.
