      Removed trivia section

      Trivia sections are discouraged - and these are more about the hamlet & ZIP code than the TOB

      Speaking of trivia, the economy of Oyster Bay presumably isn't based on Air Lingus' U.S. office being located there. Perhaps, the economy section should either be expanded to be less humorous or just eliminated. Jmdeur (talk) 03:21, 26 July 2009 (UTC)
