There are three ways you can correctly handle time zone changes in EvX:

* Leave everything alone and live with the system's time not jiving with
your current location
* Adjust the time zone in Date & Time and change the _default_ time zone for
new calendar events in EvX's prefs
* Adjust the time zone in Date & Time and manually specify the time zone of
the event on a per-event basis

I prefer the last option. In case you weren't aware of this functionality,
you can assign a time zone to any event. With the event window open click on
the Options button at the far right-end of the window's toolbar and pick a
time zone from the Time Zone menu. Alternatively you can choose the time
zone from an appropriately named item in the "Event" menu which appears when
you have a calendar even window frontmost.

Comes in very handy when, for example, you're in Los Angeles trying to
schedule an event that will be occurring in Rome. Instead of trying to add
nine hours to the time of the event so that you enter it correctly in the
event window, just enter the time local to Rome and then set the event's
time zone to "Amsterdam, Berlin, Bern, Rome, Stockholm, Vienna".
