> Morocco and Gaza do their daylight savings based on Ramadan.
Something about this doesn't make sense. My understanding is that Ramadan can happen at any season of the year (imagine fasting all day in Greenland during the summer!) because the Islamic calendar doesn't insert intercalary months like many other "lunar" calendars do. Given that, what is the benefit of having a daylight savings time at all if it's tied to the lunar calendar? Isn't the idea of DST tied to day length?
