Google Trends edit

The NY Times seemed to take the geographical rankings with a grain of salt saying "... keep in mind that the rankings partly reflect the locations of large computer servers ... while Elmhurst, Ill. which has gotten attention for doing a lot of "sex" searches appears to represent some of the Western suburbs of Chicago."

Gallery edit

Seriously, 67.163.90.107, a gallery of blurry train pictures does not add to this article about Elmhurst. If you disagree then please say why here instead of just reinserting them.

I once lived here edit

I once lived in Elmhurst, and I think that we should include a picture of and some information about the Historic York Theater. I once did a Wiki prodject in grade school aabout York Theater, and I think that some info about the city's landmarks would be appropriate. Hieveryone13 (talk) 14:18, 10 October 2008 (UTC)Reply

Porn searches edit

According to http://www.onlinemba.com/blog/the-stats-on-internet-pornography/, Elmhurst is the US capital of searches for porn. Not sure if its noteworthy enough to include here, but it sure is interesting. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Softlord (talkcontribs) 15:48, 3 June 2010 (UTC)Reply

I don't think that a poorly referenced infographic from a content farm designed to sell "Online MBAs" is a good source. 107.8.60.45 (talk) 08:37, 7 June 2011 (UTC)Reply
