Yeah, the date-time for networked messages will be in local time from where
they are posted, with no reliable internationalization.  Your best bet is to
check the filesystem date/time for the board in question.  You can then simply
show a "Last Update/Post: yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm" based on the FS's date time.
