Thanks for the heads-up. If Turkey actually changes its time zones or 
daylight-saving rules please let us know. I hope they give us plenty of 
warning (such as a year or more); otherwise, their cell phones and/or 
computers will likely be off.

One minor point. The text says "Saatlerini de?i?tirmeyen en b?y?k 
?lkeler ?in, Hindistan ve Japonya" which Google translates as "The 
largest countries that do not change their clocks are China, India and 
Japan." Using the Wikipedia list of countries by population[1], the ten 
most populous countries that do not observe daylight saving time are 
China, India, Indonesia, Pakistan, Brazil, Nigeria, Bangladesh, Russia, 
Japan, and Ethiopia, in that order.

Kind of a misleading statistic, though, since Indonesia straddles the
equator and much of Brazil, Nigeria, and Ethiopia are within 15 degrees
latitude, making DST unnecessary for them.
