A 30 minute meeting should normally be tall enough to display two  
lines of text, not one, in order to show a time and a title.  This  
can be helped  by reducing the default # of hours to be shown on screen.

Use the time zone icon approach Mimi prototyped to save space.

Always display columns wide enough to show time  as HH:MM XM or HH:MM  
XM TZ if the event is in a different time zone than the currently  
viewed one.  Never truncate.
