I'll have to check this out, since it is right up my alley! Actually, I thought a long time ago that the resolution of Zeno's paradox had to do with the "Planck distance" (10 to the minus 43rd power of a meter), a unit for which smaller units of length have no meaning in a quantum-level kind of way. But this guy seems to be saying something different.

Even w/o the concept of Plank distance, all Zeno's doing is essentially adding zero after the point he ignores significant figures.
