[Python-Dev] Issue 2736: datetimes and Unix timestamps

Just to correct a misapprehension seen in this thread: there are still
plenty of closed systems on the planet where every machine is set to UTC so
that "local" time is UTC regardless of where the machine is physically
located. You just won't hear about many of those systems if you're not
working on or using them directly.

Cheers,
Nick.
