A modest proposal: if you are a Googler, lobby to have the clocks on Android phones display local time with UTC in small print below (or wherever makes sense in the UI). A political solution is a non-starter, but if this change can be quietly pushed out to millions of users, people will get used to the idea of UTC.
IMHO, UTC = "Business Time", so if people just got in the habit of using UTC for conference calls, travel, etc, that would be a win. Local time will probably never go away, we are too used to the idea of solar time.
