	one to research the types of fibers used in period wicks;
	one to research the braid pattern used in period candle wicks;
	one to research the proper length of a period candle;
	one to research the variety of beeswax needed;
	four to study the breeding of the now extinct species of bees
necessary;
	two to research and build the proper beehive;
	one to plant the clover for the bees to feed on;
	one to research the various dyes and pigments used to color the
candles;
	(one Maunche to actually make the candles while this is going on);
	one to study the types of perfumes and scents used;
	two to send conflicting articles to the Complete Anachronist on the
topic of period candle making; and
	one to object that tallow and rushes are much more authentic.
