Permission to drop eggs from buildings? No, I haven't alerted the Minister for Poultry Products as of yet, but do remind me later and I'll get it done tomorrow.

You, Miss Shirley, may name your egg, but only if it inspires better engineering.

Only for students in Introductory Physics, though I can make arrangements if you'd like to revisit it?

I wasn't aware that dropping eggs was a school subject now. School is so interesting!

It gets quite competitive, too; whose egg will survive? Whose will perish? It's life and death, physics!

Only in the toughest schools. And some will even use lead weights and incline planes! PHYSICS, lad! It's what makes the world go 'round!

Nineteen, and is actually being... good at science, or liking it at all required?

If those were requirements I'd have exactly zero students, dear.
