I've said before I've always been slightly suspicious of snopes and I finally have some proof!

In 1996 or 97 (I forget which) I used to watch this alot

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TFI_Friday

I used to watch it religiously because it was cool and Chris Evans performed the egg version of this live on air with mobile phones of the day. They put a raw egg between 2 mobile phones and had them talking to each other for the duration of the show - at the end of the show they cracked the egg open and it was (very) soft boiled - the white was white and had gone 'gloopy'.

I saw that with my own eyes and TFI was live with the audience up close to the host and guests.

I accept that was the old analogue phones BUT it was possible to do it, it WAS done live on air and Snopes have ignored this.

That is all

Jon I wouldn't think the omission from consideration of one remembered TV show disqualifies the credibility of Snopes...I certainly don't see them as infallible but I think they check out their sources to whatever extent they're capable...

They may not have your info yet to check...Why not drop them a line here with what you know?...Maybe you can add to the sum total of man's knowledge...Ben
