Each year in Denver I record winter's presence by the scurrying sound of furry squirrels going after the remaining crabapples hanging on our trees.

And then this year I read House Bill 1400, CRS 5-9.5-101 to 109. It passed our Legislature after a two-year review. It took effect Nov. 1, 2010 regarding "refund anticipation loan facilitators" referred to in the rest of this column as RALs.
