In a large orgainization running Exchange, it is plausible. The current recommend is to include the real meeting date/time as text in email subject lines and comment fields when submitting invitations/appointments and posting calendar events. Here's a link to article with a quote from an tech analyst (exchange admin) and some other tidbits on the sore issue. http://news.com.com/IT+pros+battle+clock+and+code+in+time+change/2100-1011_3-6164152.html And a bunch of reader comments at end of article (I read cnet news.com for the comments, not necessarily the articles).
