And what's the relation between "Achilles and the Tortoise" and "The Tortoise and the Hare" fable (by Aesop?)? Is it the same story, or different? I know Zeno came up with the Achilles problem. Was it meant to be absurd, like the arrow that never reaches its mark because it can be infinitely said to be "halfway there"? Can someone remind me of what happened to the hare in Aesop's fable? Did he eat and get fat or just fall asleep before the finish line? Thanks!
