When trying to come up with topics to discuss each week on Colorado Inside Out, I look to all sorts of news sources, talk with our panelists and, as is the case this week, listen to my 19-year-old daughter, Eliza.

In a week when we’re learning economic activity is slower in Colorado than recent years, generosity remains very high.
