What makes me wonder is how Zeno could eat. After all,
in order to get, say, soup from his bowl to his mouth, his
spoon first has to travel half the distance, then half
again, then. And then there's the issue of how he deals
with the inevitable results of eating soup. I won't go
into details here.

I'm not even sure he can blink, after all, for the eyelid has
to first travel halfway across the eye surface...it must
have been a painful (and rather short) existence after
Zeno had his revelation.

Maybe all of 1 minute -- after all, he couldn't have been
able to breathe, either.
