So, why don't you start one? 

Okay, I will. I saw a science program for kids called Beakman's World and
he gave a recipe for making sugar "glass" like they use in movies. It
used Karo syrup. How did they make it in period? I saw a documentary on
Lorenzo Medici and they said that he had a lot of things made from candy
glass at his wedding. I've always wondered how it was done.
