The problem with this is that when the user who created the calendar  
changes their account's timezone, everyone all of a sudden sees  
something different.

For example, I create a collection while my timezone is set to PST  
for my Cosmo workmates to share, some of who don't want a Cosmo  
account. Then I go to NY to work there a while and switch my timezone  
to EST and all the CC's viewing the calendar see all the events in NY  
time.
