Zeno needed to talk to anyone who has taken Calc and, just to be thorough, a 2nd year Math major. F. Parmenides on the other hand is describing reality as an n-dimensional unchanging object where the flow of time is illusory. Actually possible, way ahead of his time. A+.

Not that I subscribe to that particular model, but its neat that when he made that argument the counter was "are you high?" and now there is none, physics has at least one (unproven) proposal where that is scientific reality.
