Ooh, we should have a "boil-off"!
I use the Cook's Illustrated method: Place the eggs in cold water, bring to a boil, boil 1 minute, remove from heat and let sit in hot water 10 minutes, plunge into ice water for five minutes, and peel.
Perfect every time, and not too hard to peel even with fresh eggs. (Fresh eggs don't peel well because the whole shell is full of egg; ever notice a big dent at the large end of a boiled egg? That means that egg is geriatric.)
