When I do either 'M' or 'S' in calendar I get
really wrong lunar and solar data. Is there
something really wrong with what I have in my
dotemacs:
(setq calendar-latitude 40.7)
(setq calendar-longitude -73.9)
(setq calendar-location-name "New York, NY")
(setq calendar-time-zone -500)
(setq calendar-standard-time-zone-name "EST")
(setq calendar-daylight-time-zone-name "EDT")
and yes indeed, I live in Manhattan.

I'm living at UTC+1 (east of Greenwich, London, UK, MET timezone) and
have these:
(setq calendar-current-time-zone-cache
(calendar-nth-named-day -1 0 3 year)
(calendar-nth-named-day -1 0 10 year)
I think I had a similiar problem some years ago and the statement above
solved it.

C-h v calendar-time-zone tells me this:
calendar-time-zone's value is -420
Documentation:
*Number of minutes difference between local standard time at
`calendar-location-name' and Coordinated Universal (Greenwich) Time. For
example, -300 for New York City, -480 for Los Angeles.
Defined in `cal-dst'.
