The closer to the exact time the easier it is. You balance on the round end and of course use raw eggs.Lawren

good question! Apparently it's UTC (used to be Greenwich Time), or Zulu time... that is 4 hours ahead of EDT.Originally posted by lawren2

The only way I know to stand an egg on its end is to hard boil it and then spin it. Only a hard boiled egg will spin on a point.Comment
