"    If I hold it for a minute , it doesn't feel so heavy . If I hold it for an hour , I'll eventually start cramping up in my arm ."   If I hold it for a whole day , my arm will probably numb up and feel paralyzed .  In each case the glass weight doesn't change , but the longer I hold it , the heavier it gets .  She continues  , &
