Problems getting clean sunrise, sunset, civil, nautical and astronomical twilight data

If in a notebook you enter:

WolframAlphaResult["Sunrise june 25, 2013", {{"DaylightInformation", 1}, "ComputableData"},                   PodStates -> {"DaylightInformation__More"}]  

you get:

{{"begin astronomical twilight","3:16 am EDT"},{"begin nautical twilight","4:07 am EDT"},{"begin civil twilight", "4:50 am EDT"},{"sunrise","5:24 am EDT"}, {"sunset", "8:31 pm EDT"}, {"end civil twilight","9:05 pm EDT"},{"end nautical twilight","9:48 pm EDT"}, {"end astronomical twilight","10:39 pm EDT"},{"duration of daylight", {15, 8}}}  

as a result (I didn't know there was something called "nautical twilight," but now that I do, I want it). Unfortunately, the result is returned not as a nice list, but instead embedded in a complicated WolframAlphaResult format. Despite trying many different approaches, I have been unable to discover a way to get just a list of this data returned. It is possible?
