Daylight Saving Time is so much fun!  I'll try to resist getting drawn into
the fray, but I have to contribute this bit of trivia regarding Arizona:
Not all of Arizona remains on Standard Time all year.  The Navajo Nation, in
northeastern Arizona, does observe Daylight Saving Time.

I guess I don't understand Native American culture.  I'd think it would be
the Amerindians who would leave the clocks alone while the rest of us mess
with the time.  Anyway, the Hopi Nation agrees with the rest of Arizona and
stays on Standard Time.

Just some of the fun things I came across when I owned the TZTAB file on
MPE.  As for Indiana and Australia and Saudi Arabia, let's not go there!
