The fact that glass is darker in those thin sides IS because of refraction. All glass is colored, usually greenish a very little bit. This is where the fog color gets in. The thicker the object, the darker it's color. So when you have a very thin piece of glass, you can look through it easily (it looks as if it's not colored). But when you look at it straight on the edges, it's actually very thick (from that point of view) so it get's dark.

Now if you look at it from a normal angle, the ray that goes into the thin side is refracted inside the glass, and comes out on the other side, causing a very dark color on your edge.

or something like that

flipside,

That's the best explanation of glass refraction I've ever heard. Nice and simple. Good stuff!!
