BOULDER

We've learned (May 2000) that Boulder, Colorado also has a strict law, requiring eating and drinking establishments to have a separately ventilated section for smokers. This has resulted in a city where there are almost no places to smoke indoors legally (and fines that discourage the typical "up-yours" attitude of scoff-law smokers). So, from here on in, instead of listing individual restaurants, we happily refer you to the Boulder Yellow Pages :)
