Verticle Eggs

Yesterday was the first day of Spring!!! It is an urban legend that on the Spring and Fall Equinoxes, one can perfectly balance an egg vertically on an even, flat surface due to the specifics of the Earth's gravitational pull. I remember when I was in the 6th grade, we put this legend to the test. Did it work? Yes!!!
Sadly, years later, I discovered that one can balance an egg vertically any other day of the year too!
So, celebrate the fact that it is officially Spring (even though we just got 5.5 inches of snow and more is expected!), but don't worry about the eggs.
