No they still occur at the local time WHERE they were set to occur, and
since YOU moved, what time they occur for YOUR time zone is what is
shown. Let's say you set up a meeting at 1 pm and you are in New York.
Now you fly to Los Angeles, (and you adjust your time zone) you will see
the meeting at 9 am, and if you conference call New York, the meeting
will in fact be taking place. IF you want to change the meeting time you
may do so.
