Ok, maybe they've changed it. It used to be that to make a 2007
contribution 
in 2008, you had to have established the account by 12/31/07. You couldn't

open an account in 2008 and fund it for 2007 (or 2006, or some other prior

year). I know that for an already established account you can back fund
it.
