Timestamps don't have a time zone -- they're always in GMT. So, when
you say a timestamp of zero, that's Jan 1, 1970 0:00 GMT -- which,
because your GMT offset is +2, is really Jan 1, 1970 02:00 in your
timezone.
What is it that you're trying to accomplish? Do you want the
timestamp for midnight on Jan 1, 1970 in /your/ timezone? Try this:
strtotime('Jan 1 2007');
