          Maybe this is some stage beef to hype a battle of the titans. Like something out of WWE. Iron Sheik vs. Hulk Hogan or something.

          Hi Nassim, I've read all your books and really enjoyed them (especially Antifragile). I've also listened to many of Barry's podcasts. Regardless of your past squabbles/history, it is disrespectful to respond the way you did in public. Praise publicly, scorn/settle privately.

          I have read all Taleb's books AND have listened to virtually every MIB broadcast from Barry and follow his staff and their podcasts. (Brown, Carlson, Batnick) I find them all excellent, but disagreeing with Barry this morning resulted in being blocked. unfair

          Abusive language is never appropriate but agreeing to disagree should be welcomed. Both Barry and Nassim have contributed to my understanding of the world, immensely
