Getting back to the paper bags:
Are you really sure that your feet were warmer with the bags? Maybe you just thought the bags looked warm before you even tried them. Were you blindfolded? Did another person, also blindfolded, swap out the bag with a wooden box or a canvas sack?
Was the bag brand-new, broken-in or out of phase? Were your feet sitting in the "sweet spot" within the bag? Did different brands of bag feel different or warm you in a special way? (Don't go there, Mark...... Trying ...to...resist....)

In all seriousness, what it probably comes down to is a larger insulating layer of air. Those paper bags seem to be pretty good insulators, at least judging by the fact that my milk's still cold after coming home from the store.

Are you sure that is milk in that brown paper bag, or a 40.

I don't think the paper bags would help in this stuff. This is what my humble abode looked like 12/27/04. And yes, I personally created the piles of snow along the left side of the driveway. Oh my achin' back! The right side of the driveway belongs to my neighbor in the second townhouse.

I've got a John Deere snow blower I'll sell ya, you'd have to come get it We just built a house a few years ago on 2.5 acres, and my drive is 150ft long and gravel. I just bought a blade from http://www.mysnowsport.com for my Silverado, it is the slickest thing I've ever bought, next to my Axiom's, and does not require hydraulics or electrical to work.

That pic of my house was taken about 3 years ago. It was in the spring, and we seeded our yard the previous winter. Currently it looks like Iceland with all the snow, you can just imagine.
