I just love the title of this thread: "Colorado secession won't go away."
But the only thing that seems not to "go away" is Professor Barleycorn's fascination with this topic. What is this, the 3rd thread he's started on this very issue? Or is it the 4th? Whatever the count may be, it certainly seems to send a Chris Matthews-style thrill up his leg, doesn't it?
The trouble is that he seems to learn nothing at all from previous threads he's started on the same topic. For instance:

One of the "solutions" suggested by Professor Barleycorn in that thread was that the counties in question could set up a "shadow government," break all legal ties with Denver (presumably including refusal to remit local and county tax revenue to the state), and thereby achieve some sort of de facto secession.
Yes, seriously!
This is just too fucking funny.
Barleycorn, would you mind telling us what kind of 'shine you've been swilling? Must be some damned potent stuff!
