Spring Is Just Around The Corner!

 Question: 

According to folklore, you can stand a raw egg on

 its end on the equinox. Is this true?

 Answer: 

On spring, a few minutes before the vernal equinox, 

several Almanac editors tried this trick. 

For a full workday, 17 out of 24 eggs stood standing. 

Three days later, we tried this trick again and found similar results.

Perhaps 3 days after the equinox was still too near. 

Try this yourself and let me know what happens!
