To go to Arizona time means you lose that, at the best in Summer, you'll get off of work and it'll start getting dark around 8:30-9:00PM.

I feel little need to go to standard time in the Winter.
I'm a morning person (typically wake up at 4 or 5 on work days) who works 8-4 usually, and I love all the sunlight I can get after work, so I'd be good with the Florida idea.
