With the new Google Trends site, you can how often people for things according to where they live. Turns out that "Star Trek" makes up the highest percentage of searches in Zagreb. You can also see a general drop off of about 40% in searches for "Star Trek" since the beginning of 2004

I heard at one point, Patrick Stewart was in a Zagreb restaurants, and when their appetizers came in, on top of the salads, made out of cucumber and peppers was a decent replica of the USS Enterprise. According to Stewart, it was the classiest recognition he had ever received.

While playing around last night, I learned using this link that Lahore, Pakistan leads in searches for "sex with animals." It was all pretty much India after that, with a couple US cities at the bottom.

Well, that's something to be thankful or. Freaky Pakistanis!
Of course, you know the US government is watching not only these searches, but us Flarites searching the searches...
