(Contributor 1) At room temperature, glass is a very viscous liquid. This means that it pours very slowly. I've always been fascinated by the fact that the glass windows in Renaissance cathedrals are thicker at the bottom than they are at the top, because the glass has flowed during the centuries. I've also been equally fascinated by the problem of how one might go about measuring
the thickness of the glass in the windows of a Renaissance cathedral.
(Contributor 2): It called a micrometer. A u-clamp looking instrument. An to get at the glass in a cathedral you have to be there during repairs or cleanings (a lot of soot gets on windows).
(Contributor 1): How would one measure the thickness if there was no access to the edge of the window?
(Contributor 3): [incorrect info removed]
(Contributor 4): Water glass(sodium silicate) is liquid at room temperature.
(Contributor 5) This answer was marked for improvement. I've taken some liberty with improving grammar, punctuation, and word usage. I've also removed some incorrect information, and a potentially offensive statement.
