We saw this very think last week but related to Pacific time. We saw it when 
looking at the form for currently active users and their last active date/time. 
Had to remove the locale from the preference from the individual and then time 
displayed correctly. The time on the client machine was correct.

Subject: Day light saving time

**
Hi:

A user believes there is a bug related to daylight time saving in software. I 
can reproduce it.
Steps:

1). If I have locale->TimeZone sets to blank, and creates an incident, its 
"Create Date" is 2012-03-19 01:55:06 PM.

2). However, when I change the TimeZone to GMT-5:00 (EST) America/New_York, 
"Create Date" of the same incident becomes 2012-03-19 12:55:06 PM. There is one 
hour defference.

My time zone is GMT-5:00 (EST) US & Canada. These two time zones are GMT-5:00. 
Do you know why these two GMT-5:00 setting shows one hour defference for the 
same incident.

This happens to incidents created between new day light saving time (second 
week of March) and old day light saving time (first week of April).

Thanks

Jianqi Cen
