It seems that there is a bug with the time zone conversion when going
from ruby to gcal. When I create a new Event, it is always 5 hours
early. It acts like local time is UTC, and so it 'converts' to 'local
time'. Essentially, it is double converting from UTC.

I have the same problem. My work arround is to set the Time.zone = "Eastern" at the top of my method, then set my event.start_time = time + 4.hours. This works for my situation, however, I am not certain this is compensating for daylight savings time. It seems that if I set the time to a date before April, then I may need to add 5 hours?
