      Thank you for your comment and for pointing this out to us. You are correct; and we understand that Ramadan should not necessarily be included as a winter holiday, unless of course it happens to fall during the winter months, which won't happen for a few years. Thanks again--we always appreciate the input!

      Ramadan is not a winter holiday. Since it is based on a lunar calendar, the month of Ramadan moves up 10 days every year. In 2018 Ramadan will be observed in May/June.
