There's a potential monkey wrench with storing all times, in the database, as UTC: daylight saving time. If you have, say recurring events, or an event in the future, you need to take into account whether the DST state matches for today and said date. One could account for this before storing the time, but the rules might change on you, as happened a few years ago, here in the states.
