This doesn't make sense to me. If I schedule a meeting in California for
tomorrow at 9:00 AM, expecting to fly there from the East Coast today, I
enter it on my calendar for 9:00 AM. When I arrive in California and pull
up my calendar I expect it to still say 9:00 AM. Further, when I schedule
it for 9:00 AM while on east coast local time, I don't expect to enter it
as 12:00 PM EST so it will show up on the calendar in California for 9:00
AM.
All appointments are scheduled for local time without regard to timezones.
