I'm only considering the timezone information. I believe that this is not the 
proper way to think before making a start. The fact that many user's timezone 
is incorrect doesn't mean that this is not needed. Lets just hope that one 
day Windows will do the right thing and keep the time in UTC while displaying 
it using the appropriate timezone.
