This sounds like the holiday problem we have here. The country is divided in 3
regions, to spread holidays a little more over time. People living near the
border of a region regularly have problems if their children are on different
schools, lying in different regions, or one or both parents

Tom,
I live a few miles from INDIANA and the states split between eastern and

Indiana had the worst idea of all. Some eastern counties had ET (EST
/ EDT), some central counties had EST all year, and some western
counties had CT (CST / CDT).
Arizona has a bad spot too. Most of the state is MST all year (too
have an extra hour in the morning with cool temperatures), but

Or just stick with Standard Time all year round.
If businesses feel that they need to adjust (for whatever reason), simply state
that their summer business hours are (for example) 10:00 ~ 18:00.

Actually, the United States is effectively divided into 2 time zones,
because of the TV services for Eastern and Central Time zones starting
prime time at 8pm ET / 7pm CT and they repeat 2 hours later for 8pm MT
