Is there ever a good reason to store time not in UTC?

Question

I am wondering if there are any good reasons to ever store time information in anything other that UTC (GMT)? I believe that this is a solid rule for all software engineering. T

I'd say it's application-dependent. I work on space physics models of the Ionosphere & Magnetosphere. We work with magnetic local time, storing date & times as Modified Julian Days.
