Omelette lover

Some omelette loving thieves have stolen 100,000 eggs from the back of a truck in Greencastle, Pennsylvania. It's hard to say how much they are worth as my local store doesn't have any eggs to compare the price with. Australia, like many countries has been badly hit by the avian flu.

If they eat a decimal dozen of 10 every week they will have enough for almost 200 years although they might cause a stink by then. What will happen to the eggs, held to ransom, sold in a back alley individually, or even given to a food charity? It could be used for a record but Guinness requires a lot of documentation so they will no longer be anonymous.

Off to the bat poles Batman. We need your help. (Apologies to Egghead from the 60s Batman show.)
