That article made reference to something about the 22nd of the month actually falls on the 27th of August this year. I took that to mean that the holiday "floats" much like the Christian observance of Easter and Good Friday. Did anybody else see it that way? I'm concerned that folks not noticing this little tidbit might hold their breath and when the actual date of 22 Aug passes let out a huge collective sigh of relief only to get blind sided five days later.

Ex, the 22nd of August coincides with the 27th day of a month in the muslim calendar, which is the day that mohammed (pox be upon him) is supposed to have ascended into allah-land. It only floats to the extent that the muslim calendar is offset from the civilized one.
