<DIV>My grandmother A'H used to take pots off the stove or move them around on
the stove with her bare hands -- no pot holders -- and did not seem to feel the
heat. As a girl I could not understand this but now I think it might be
like the way people can walk on hot coals -- if you do it fast enough there
isn't time to burn or even to feel the heat. This makes me wonder if the
temperature of yad soledes bo has a time factor -- how /long/ can you keep your
hand in the hot water before you feel the heat? If you can keep your hand
in for thirty seconds it's not yad soledes bo but if you would jerk your hand
away after a second it is yad soledes bo? Something like that?</DIV>
