Comment:

 Ok. I think this is somewhat like UTF-8 encoding/decoding in that we
 should be explicit whenever times come into and leave the application that
 they are converted to "local" time where this is the local time for the
 application, and for our use this will always be UTC. Let's just watch out
 for this.

 The patch looks good to me.
