Now, I can fully agree with _that_ :-)

That's all true and I won't argue about the madness that is timezones
in the world. I am simply thinking it would be some sort of a struct
like thing which would store the numerical value of the time stamp and
also the time zone that time was recorded in. Presumably everything
else is an insane ca
Yes it would record the timestamp and then also record the time zone.
That way all the conversion functions would still work.
That's the way it works in the programming languages I use anyway.

To expand on that question a bit:
There are several formats to specify a time zone: By offs

What would that TZ mean, exactl
One specified by the user. Many date formats carry either an offset
or the time zone information.
