Taleb vs Merton, Cont.

I have become very dissapointed with Taleb, whose first book was brilliant, imo.. But...

I have formed an opinion that Mr. Taleb is not a "builder". Remember the movie "Seven samuri"? At the end, the worrier says: "People who work the land are the ones that matter"? Or something like that.

Well, Mr Taleb offers only over-dramatic criticism of the framework build by giants much bigger than he is and ever will be (likes like Metron come to mind)...

Mr Taleb should stop barking at elephants. Or propose something that will let us "work the land" when the storm is over, instead of pursuing this overzealous self-promotion campaign...
