    I like getting the tax revenues. And the neighbor will get a new paint job at Bieber's expense.

    Please check out the TD policy thread at the top of the main forum page. We strive for discussion that is vigorous and interesting, while maintaining a respectful tone. I hope that you become an active poster.

    It would be easier to make t-shirts, and t-shirts could be made without buying a brewery.

    Moderator note -- let's cool this down by at least 10%.

    Great article. Thanks for posting this. It looks like there is a blue division and a red one. Is one division for the better players? What is the range of skill/health levels?

    Moderator note -- please tone down the derogatory comments about Venezuela -- this is offensive to some people.

    Great way to start the year, Parker.

    I was thinking the same thing.

    Bump.

    I read and enjoyed every word of this. It almost makes me want to run for school board again, but then I remember that my wife will divorce me if I do that.

    As a former school board member, I love this post. You provided a lot of insight as to the plight of great teachers. I wonder what you think about the idea of a uniform national math curriculum (with multiple tracks). It seems to me that this would reduce the burden by providing lesson plans for teachers, and it could be paired with online support for students. I also think that math would be the best subject to try this, because there should be less regional variation compared with other subjects.

    Based on my dealings with teachers (I served on the local school board for four years), I can believe that you put in 400+ extra hours per year, BUT my sense is that most teachers put in much less than this. Would you agree? I was a proponent of paying more to the better teachers (based on both objective and subjective criteria), but the teachers' union was not open to this.

    I know English teachers and history teachers who spend closer to 10 hours per week writing and grading tests, and reading/grading papers at home. Also, some teachers stay after school (or come early) to meet with students.

    Nice post. Please keep those interesting links coming.

    It's great to have you on board.

    Welcome, Rookie. This is an excellent post.

    He had a great career, and hopefully a great life.

    Your post is a good example of the level of intelligent, respectful discussion that we want to have at TD. You have made your arguments without attacking other posters, and you have focused on substance and have refrained from preaching. Very nice work.

    Despite the inaccuracies, this makes me want to root for Mayer even more than before I read the story.

    Moderator note -- the next post that tends to incite/escalate squabbling is going to result in a one week ban.
  25. glunn
    Moderator note -- let's always be careful when characterizing another poster's positions. And let's always be respectful of our fellow TD members. There is a lot of good discussion in this thread, but if the tone does not change then we will close it down.
