   Nevermind. I communicated it wrong.  But perhaps the tzutc could     
   reflect the time and zone, based on when *and* where, the author     
   actualy is.   
      
   So, Veleno's tzutc would make me appear in Italy, although I am     
   not. Where as, OpenXP's tzutc across my myriad of Boss systems     
   can pin-point my local time and timezone.
