To refrigerate or to not refrigerate?

I was just talking about this with my Ma. She can't believe that you don't have to put unwashed eggs in the fridge.

Great article. When we lived in Europe the eggs weren't refrigerated in the stores.

If the weather is warm (90F or more), I do refrigerate because if I don't the yolks deteriorate and start breaking easily when I cook my fried eggs. I don't like broken yolks for breakfast.

Also, if I have any broodies, I usually have to refrigerate, too, because the eggs being incubated for X amount of hours warms them up too much to sustain the yolk quality until I manage to get them eaten a few days to a week later.
