Same here. I could've sworn that I remembered, years ago, that we stopped changing the clocks for awhile. Now, after reading a Wikipedia article, I'm not sure my memory matches up with the facts. Of course, it was quite a long time ago and I probably can't remember anything from those years...

I mean, why doesn't Arizona observe it? The Hopi Reservation, which lies entirely within that state does not observe it, but the Navajo Reservation, which also extends into two adjacent states, does.
