    // DateTimeOffset is a value type that consists of a DateTime and a time zone offset,
    // ie. how far away the time is from GMT. The DateTime is stored whole, and the offset
    // is stored as an Int16 internally to save space, but presented as a TimeSpan.
    //
    // The range is constrained so that both the represented clock time and the represented
    // UTC time fit within the boundaries of MaxValue. This gives it the same range as DateTime
    // for actual UTC times, and a slightly constrained range on one end when an offset is
    // present.
    //
    // This class should be substitutable for date time in most cases; so most operations
    // effectively work on the clock time. However, the underlying UTC time is what counts
    // for the purposes of identity, sorting and subtracting two instances.
    //
    //
    // There are theoretically two date times stored, the UTC and the relative local representation
    // or the 'clock' time. It actually does not matter which is stored in m_dateTime, so it is desirable
    // for most methods to go through the helpers UtcDateTime and ClockDateTime both to abstract this
    // out and for internal readability.
