I had typed this whole page out and in the middle of it all, somehow I got signed out. I'm guessing that's the laptop I'm on that caused the problem, but who knows. I hate this computer with a passion. I had so many clever and witty comments too. Oh well. Anyways YPD is Yeast (Extract) Peptone Dextrose, used to grow yeast.

=Steps= To make 2L
 * 1) eyeball 1600mL DI water
 * 2) add 20g yeast extract
 * 3) add 40g peptone
 * 4) add remaining amount of water
 * 5) separate into 2 stocks
 * 6) *1L for liquid solution, 1L to be made for petri dishes (more solid)
 * 7) add 20g Agar to solid stock
 * 8) autoclave
 * 9) add dextrose (omitted by accident) to both stocks
