Each individual person just needs to That may be nice for you, but most of the non-software-engineering normal humans I exchange email with are not capable of doing any timeone math whatsoever, much less the next zone over. UTC is right out. This is especially the case for those who tend to use Exchange, which curiously offers these UTC defaults, I guess on the assumption that everyone's mail clients will convert everything to local time. To put it different, it's not so much that I don't want to the timezone math (although I don't really), it's that I am confident that the people I deal with do not. I'm sure your experience may be different, but those are my requirements. -- jh...@alum.mit.edu John Hawkinson
