Long Un-Punctuated Statements Appear To Be Appropriate Titles For Scientific Papers

Today I ran a gel on the PCR reaction that I set up on Tuesday. Nothing, again... I went back to ground zero and prepared more DNA samples from plant tissue. I suspect that DNA samples can only be frozen and unfrozen so many times before becoming unusable.

I started working on my paper today, had quite a time trying to come up with a reasonable title. Well, I guess "reasonable" is a bit of a stretch, even though my title does sound very science-y: "Three Brassica Oleracea Dwarf Mutants Are Brassinosteroid-Insensitive."

I almost wish that I was working with seven dwarf mutants instead of three, that way I could throw a cheap pun into my PowerPoint.
