| 1368086 | 2014-02-19 08:08:00 | I've got two loose eggs in my fridge. One is boiled, the other raw. Can anyone suggest how I can tell which is which? | Greg (193) | ||

| 1368095 | 2014-02-19 21:40:00 | Is this what people are checking for when I see shoppers swapping eggs from one box to the other in supermarkets ? Use a water divining rod, or a psychic . Better still use a psychic with a water devining rod. That doubles the chance of being correct, so 2x 50/50 = 100% every time |
