Storing the offset in a variable makes it easy to change globally. There is the isDTSOn value of the GetTimeZoneInfo() function as well but you could very well have some wrong times for a max of 5 hours depending on the two US locations if you decide to dynamically update the offset based on isDTSOn. That said, I would use the isDTSOn value to help decide the offset but I would update the offset manually. Using isDTSOn would really only be a backup plan in case you forget to update it yourself.
I havent looked at the CFC you posted, does that cover DTS? If so it may be a simpler solution for now. You could also cfexecute time and change the time of the server ;-)... Ps ... that is a joke of course... don't get yourself kicked off your host ..:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.
