I haven't seen "radically elementary probability theory".

There was some mention of it in PA. I seem to remember something about mimicked nonstandard analysis in some extension of Robinson's Q in which the totality of exponentiation fails, or something vaguely like that, but it was a long time ago.

I'm going to check it out some time.
