given a local date:
-- use dateadd(hour, datediff(hour, GetDate(), GetUTCDate())
-- to get the current hour difference between UTC and local date
declare @.GetDateVal datetime
select @.GetDateVal = '20051117 15:00:00'
select @.GetDateVal, datediff(second, '19700101', dateadd(hour,
datediff(hour, GetDate(), GetUTCDate()), @.GetDateVal ) )
