Re: Time Zone Computation

So, my dilemma is this - based upon a specific date and time, in a specific

I don't know of a public database of city, date, UTC offset. Because that's
what is needed for a generic solution to this problem. Because the date of
the switch between summer and winter time has changed through the years due
to legislation.

Perhaps a universal, generic solution is overkill for the immediate problem?
