Quantum mechanics teaches us what the physical meaning of action really is.
Action is really a phase of a complex amplitude. One cycle of action
corresponds to h = 6.626 x 10^(-34) J*s and an action of one radian of
phase
angle corresponds to h_bar = 1.0546 x 10^(-34) J*s. The extent that one
wants to think of angles as dimensionless is the extent to which action is
also fundamentally dimensionless.

RIGHT! Now that that's cleared up, ;-( what does QM have to say about
who will win the Series?
