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

Answer 1

Ever? I'm sure there are good reasons in some isolated cases. In general, though, storing UTC is much better than local time, so I would treat UTC as the default position unless there's some special consideration.
