I'm from London, but I travel in between the UK and US for work. I'm a Stock Broker and I travel to other places on my free time.

Hi. Question, AmazonTania, is what you do related at all to what Taleb writes about in The Black Swan? have you read that, know of it, have any thoughts on it?

Skimmed it while reading at a Starbucks/Barnes & Noble. I think it's interesting. Reminds me of Thomas Sowell's Intellectuals in Society.

Hmm, hadn't seen that before you mentioned it, but yes. I wonder if Taleb is himself an intellectual--have only read 1/3 so far. His whole idea of uncertainty is sound science, just not sure how science applies to such a chaotic system.
