my laptop roams and i tend to go with it, right now we are in japan.
using tzsetup, i reset the timezone on my system as i move. e.g.
roam.psg.com:/usr/home/randy> date
Wed Sep 4 14:15:47 JST 2002
but emacs seems to remember the timezone where emacs was first
run after the system was last booted.

This is the same with every program that still runs when you change the
time zone. The current time zone is usually only determined once during
startup. To reinitialize Emacs' view of the system's time zone use
set-time-zone-rule.

Make sure you do not have set TZ in the environment.

did that
% env | grep TZ
%
note that, just to recheck my previous assertion, i have restart
emaces and it still thinks we are in seattle (-0700) as opposed to
kokura (+0900).
