As regards how long I could have kept my hand on it before surrendering to the cold, I can't remember exactly, unfortunately. | |

Murray | Without making any statement on the physics involved, I would imagine that when you're reaching into your freezer your hand is relatively warm (and wet) compared to when you're out in the Icelandic wilderness touching a glacier, so it seems like there would be a difference in perception even if there wasn't a significant physical difference. | |
