timezone chaos.

depending on all participating code some respect timezones, some don't.
and so you can have three differnt timezones (editor, server, visitor) a 
correction sometimes is appropiate, sometimes not.

and also if all three timezones are identical one of the routines may 
adjust in the wrong way the result will be modified against the origin.

you may find further info with searching for older threads as the 
problem occurs often.
