Mel,

The bit about crocodillin was meant to be funny.  Crocodillin is a real
substance and will probably cause people to live longer because of lowered
deaths due to infectious diseases.  We once called pneumonia the "old mans'
friend" because it would put him out of his misery.

Crocodillin is only one potential modality to extend life.  Life is like chess
and there are many possibilities.  Yesterday, almost the entire state of New
Mexico and El Paso lost its' electrical grid.  No juice-No Fritz!  Life without
computer chess is life-threatening.

I guess that you could contact Dr. Gill Diamond at the New Jersey Medical School
and volunteer for inclusion in a human study.  Since you are 98 y/o, I am sure
that you would have to sign a waiver of liability since any insurance premiums
would be as high as the number of moves in chess.

Have fun,

Tim "not gullible" Frohlick
