Sam Harris has now posted an email exchange between himself and Noam Chomsky. It's quite amusing in a way. Harris seems to have been emboldened to email Chomsky following Krauss's discussion with Chomsky earlier this year and to say that he would like a public discussion of their differences.
Chomsky says the idea of publishing their exchange is "pretty weird, a strange form of exhibitionism", but spends much of the exchange berating Harris for misrepresenting him in his book, End of Faith.
Whether you like Chomsky or not, you have to admire his ability to pummel his opponent even as Harris is asking for a more "collegial" tone.
