standard time zones boundries were established, most localities requested to have the boundires modified from the 15 degre boundries to fit their policical regions. And several have mentioned tha Arizona (USA) does not go on "Daylight Savings Time" in the summer.

Here is an interesting footnote. AZ stays on standard time all year round (Yeah!). However, the Navajo Indian (native american) Reservation occupies a large portion of Arizona and they do not follow the state, but rather follow the U.S. Gov't BIA (Bureau of Indian Affairs) and switch from MST fro MDT in the summer, rumored to be because of their dislike for the state and their reliance on the Fereral Gov't. However, the Hopi "Rez" is right in the middle of the Navajo Rez and they don't like the Navajo (long time dispute), so to show their distain for the Navajo, they go with the state and display clocks that show the standard time.
