Dag -- is a chicken egg a chicken egg because a chicken comes out of it, or because a chicken laid it?
I could engineer a chicken to lay eggs that hatchec in to ducks, would those eggs be chicken eggs or duck eggs?
edit: If it's a chicken egg because a chicken comes out of it, like you said, then what about un-fertilized eggs? What makes them chicken eggs?
And do they even deserve to be eggs if they cannot play part in procreation? (Everything has to refer to gay marriage eventually. ![[Wink]](wink.gif) )

Obviously, chuck eggs. Or...well, nevermind.

Bev,
Exactly! Well done! (Not the eggs, the comment).
I can't comment more, because I;ve got to get back to work.
Later!

20 points for Dag for actually bringing this thread back on-track!
Does this mean I have 20 snarky points to use?

They would be duck eggs.
Why?
Because otherwise my proof would fail.
And my proof's right.
Ergo, they're duck eggs. ![[Big Grin]](biggrin.gif)
