So, a bit of an odd question, but it's been bugging me for a while; could you put whole eggs (shell and all) into a blender if you're making something like scrambled eggs? In a sufficiently powerful blender, would the shell bits damage the blender at all? What about your digestive tract? Is there anything in egg shells that could nutritionally help/harm you? I know it only takes 5 seconds to crack eggs, but I'm curious.

First off, the blender should not be damaged by the shells; if it is, it should have been replaced anyway. The mass of the shells is simply not enough to damage the blender in any significant way.
I would not, however, recommend eating the product, for a few reasons:
