The problem is more subtle than this. Each timezone may or may not have
daylight saving time. There are rather wacky DST rules out there, so you'll
need to take these into account. Converting from UTC to a local time is
relatively easy. Converting from one timezone to another is more involved
since DST may be in effect in either timezone. Your best bet is in this
case is to convert from one local timezone to UTC, then from UTC to the
other timezone. Note that UTC = GMT time, but GMT is no longer the accepted
name for Zulu time.
