More than you ever thought you needed to know about DateTime

DateTime is just a simple struct, right?  How complicated can it be?  Complicated enough to warrant a 12 page article about it, full of best practices.  Most people take DateTime for granted, but there are some very important gotchas that usually don't come out in testing.  I was bitten by one last year (XML Serialization and different time zones) and you could be, too.  Read this, especially if you do web services.
