My Nephew came to visit this summer, brought corn on the cob and showed me how to microwave it.
I put 2 ears with husk on in the microwave (did tonight!) and cook it on high for 7 minutes.
With a sharp knife cut the stem end off at the first row of corn.
Then grab the small end and shake the ear out of the husk.
It might take some shaking (and it's hot) but it comes out clean without the silk!
I have had corn 5-6 times since he showed me and it works every time.

We do 8 minutes for 2 ears and then let them steam in the microwave for 1 minute before cutting the stem and then sliding them out. No silk and they are very tender!!! Easy and cooked to perfection!
