I have a string that I am parsing that looks like this:
"2006-05-23T13:19:00+01:00"

Can you assist in making sure I am converting to local time correctly?  Right 
now, I'm doing something similar to this:

//given vars are parsed from the string above
//This statement below should convert the string above to UTC.
//The given seconds in the example above is 3231235140 (seconds)
//The given timezone in the case above is 60 (minutes)
//I got daylightSavingAdjustment from prefs.
//Question: How do I know what to put for daylight savings here?
//    I don't know what the daylight savings is for the provided
//    time, right?  I just put my local daylight savings
UTCDateSeconds = TimTimeZoneToUTC(givenDateSeconds, givenTimeZoneTotal, 
daylightSavingAdjustment);

//Next I want to convert UTC to local
//Timezone was retreived from prefs.
//Daylightsavingadjustment is the same as above (retrieved from
//local)
LocalDateSeconds = TimUTCToTimeZone(UTCDateSeconds, timeZone, 
daylightSavingAdjustment);

I would think that I would get the local converted seconds back here, but they 
aren't correct.  Any ideas?
