In order to use a GMT offset this would require a GMT offset variable in w3tvars.pm and then one in the user profile. This actually wouldn't be too difficult as all the calculations would be in the convert time function. But, part of setup would be to figure out the GMT offset of where your server is located. So for instance, in my case I would put in -7 for this variable. Does this sound too complicated?

The only problem with running everything off of GMT is the daylight savings time issue. Whereas if you use the standard time call, daylight savings is already taken into consideration when reporting the time back.
