The oauth_timestamp has no time zone; it's implicitly Universal Time
(also known as GMT). But OAuth service providers usually require
consumers' clocks to be fairly accurate.

You could try implementing your client to adapt to the server's clock.
It could look at the Date in the HTTP response headers, or the
oauth_acceptable_timestamps in the response body.
