Ron Francis, "The Andover Teacher Who Supported Hamas -- and Got His Students to Help," the person most responsible for the disruptive visit of "Wheels of Justice" to Andover High School earlier this year, and big kahuna of the Somerville Divestment Project has, in a surprise move, resigned his teaching position. He will be moving on. Reliable news is not yet in on the real reason for the move. Time will tell, and we will be sure to report on the future disposition of the soon to be erstwhile physics teacher....

1) You must have Javascript enabled in your browser in order to comment (blame the spammers). If you don't know what that is, you're probably fine.
2) HTML is on, so basic html should work. Raw links will be made auto-clickable, too, so even if you don't know html you can just paste in the link and it should work fine. Keep the "http://" in it.
3) Comments are generally unmoderated, which means I don't necessarily agree with the tone and tenor of everything posted. In fact, sometimes people post things they don't really mean just to make other people look bad. The internet is an anonymous place for the most part. That said...
4) I welcome you to post here. I'd love to have your input, agree, disagree or just offer a different data point, really. If I didn't want any participation, I'd turn off comments. Be aware, however, that this blog and the comments section exist for my entertainment. Therefore, I reserve ALL RIGHTS here, including the right to remove any or all comments on nothing more than a whim. Please don't even bother complaining. I'm the one providing the space and the free news and thought buffet. I don't owe anyone anything.
Anyone who posts here will be treated as my guest. That means I'm happy to be polite as a default, but if anyone is rude to the host they'll be unceremoniously shown the door.
It may pay to recall a famous line from the Tom Selleck magnum opus, Mr. Baseball: "Jack-san, you want Yoji's advice about the babes, you come to Yoji with respect."
5) Enjoy your stay!
I wonder why he resigned. I hope the town of Andover can begin healing after all of his inappropriate actions and venomous politics. I think the current civil war in the Palestinian territories shows that embracing violence as a solution (as Francis and the Wheels of Justice did) is not only immoral, it's ineffective.
