Specifically, daylight savings times rules change, so depending on whether all 
your equipment has the latest updates (and whether you observe DST or its 
equivalent), you can end up with mismatched times at different points in the 
year even if you have set the offsets correctly.

Plus correlating messages and timestamps from different sources can be 
interesting if they're all from different timezones.  At 2am in the morning, 
one of the last things I want to be thinking about is remembering how many 
hours to subtract/add from some timestamps and not others.  :)
