Alignment: Formatting Options
Step Four in Aligning Your Seqeuences:
    1.  The third choice is selected by default.  Leave this option selected.  The other two options are for advanced users.  Both of these first two options condense the standard 7,682 format by eliminating gaps in the sequence, thereby preventing the file from being able to be used by Greenegenes for either a chimeric check or classification.  As you will want to do both a chimeric check and later classify your sequences leave this third option checked.
