Xeno's Paradox
1. A problem first posed by an ancient Greek philosopher, showing that progress is impossible if we break down each step as covering half the distance to the objective.
2. The situation of moving my girlfriend's belongings from her old place around the corner to her new place next door over the course of the last seven weeks. Although the denominator of the fraction of stuff that remains is now in triple-digits, we are still not FINISHED. Xeno would be proud.
