'''Overlap extension reactions take two oligos with complementary 3' ends, and fill in the rest of the sequence with a polymerase. Any polymerase system will work for this (Taq, Vent, Expand, Pfu...)'''

 * 1) Make 100uM stocks of the oligos (the usual concentration for stocks, it's used here as 1x)
 * 2) Set up per extension reaction (it's ok to make a master mix of everything except the oligos, then split it and add the oligos--just make sure to add the polymerase after the buffer and dNTPs have been added)
 * 1) Run the "wobble" program, which is:
 * 1) There is nothing to see on a gel, so don't bother, just go into the short DNA cleanup procedure.
