Rich,
I believe this is really getting too picky on the resistor subject.
Of course all discrete components with any wire lead length will have
some inductance. Anyone would know that. However, I think the guy is
trying to convey that they are not of the "wire wound variety" which
have a lot of inductance compared to carbon types...
