What about extending "Continental Area" to "Continental Area or Special Timezone", and then using "Special" as a continent-link chapter for non-geographical oriented timezones? By this no new fourth layer (Geo vs. logic TZ/ Continent / Country /Spezific) need to be introduced. And there aren't that much continents so some new entrys would still be noticable. CU, Achim
