No, the mention of Seneca in #Antifragile as “another child of the Italian peninsula” (the other being Fat Tony) is not a mistake. Yes, S was born in Spain of Roman parents. But Fat Tony was born in NJ of Italian parents. It's a statement of origin. [Saving email replies] — PolitiTweet.org

@JesusEncinar Yes I know. He was Roman. Fat Tony was born in NJ, also "child of the Italian peninsula"
