Actually, there's a way to do it that doesn't hurt them. Fill up your sink with VERY cold water (a little ice helps), then dizzolve as much salt in the water as it will hold, (if you keep stirring and no more will be absorbed, it will start to settle on the bottom), Put the lobster in, and in a few minutes, the high salinity and cold will put it to sleep. Put the now unconcious, limp lobster in the boiling water and it will be dead before it wakes up.
