Telling people that risk of Salmonella is essentially no big deal is as irresponsible as it comes. Having dealt with outbreaks that resulted in multiple child deaths it leaves me incredulous that you would suggest that.

Refrigeration is not simply to prevent cross-contamination, it is to RETARD bacterial growth in the event an egg (or shell) is harboring a pathogen. Thereby providing some additional protection against a major infectious dose, in the event your eggs are a bit runny and undercooked-- or your child reaches in to the cookie batter containing raw eggs before you catch them. Or one foolishly goes all "Rocky Balboa" with the raw eggs in your energy shake...It isn't for aesthetics or because public health agencies are looking for a message to make them relevant.

I won't respond further as I do not want this to escalate.
