It's also a problem for software engineers in the UK, for whom 6 months of the year utc and local time are the same, resulting in people not knowing the difference. In the rest of the world it's bleedin obvious.
A downside to inventing time I guess ;)
Yup, on occassion you think you've set up a server correctly but it's actually on local time, only to find everything breaks come the end of March.
The two times a year when you find out which new tests were written to use local time instead of UTC.
A downside to believing that you invented the concept of measuring time.
Also in software dev and yes it's a pain, I've had to point out multiple times that UTC != GMT.
