Old Zeno never convinced anybody. His lecture notes were preserved through the ages only because they were so odd. If you want true strangeness, though, check into Galileo's lab notes. The only one of the bunch that was worth anything was Marin Mersenne, and he wasn't even a scientist. Maybe there's something to be learned there.

I'm only a curious onlooker in science, But I can assure you that Wittgensteinian/analytical English Philosophy Departments will love this breakthrough in analysis.

There is no instant. Brilliant.
