I can store each user's timezone setting as "[+-]HH:MM".  But I can
only apply that to GMT values. So when I'm reading from the database,
it's a trivial operation.

However, if a user specifies a datetime, I would have to provide the
reverse of that value to convert the user time into GMT. It would be a
bit easier (yet still messy) if the timezone was just an integer, then
I could just "*-1". But the ":MM" seems to make it a messy string
operation.

Is this the only option? It seems like there would have been a
"better" way to handle this.

Thanks,
