After extensive digging, and a bunch of disapppointments:

http://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/meetingtime.html?day=30&month=10&year=2008&pa=0&pa=136&pa=137&pa=179&pa=195&pa=240

...and that can easily be modified to change dates (it will
autoamtically take into account daylight saving time etc, allegedly?).
I chose the cities arbitrarily to have one east coast, one west, one
in australia, one europe, one UK.

(PS: I was deeply disappointed that the various "event organizing
sites", especially upcoming.yahoo, still don't support this basic
functionality :(. I tried a bunch of them with no success)

PPS: I think IME, timezones are tricky to get right at the best of
times, but now, when we've got different countries switching off
daylight saving times on different days :(, and we're dealing with at
least 5 distinct timezones, it's a nightmare to get right.
