    However, Planck's Constant > Avogadro's Number by an unmeasureable amount of coolness and/or usefullness .

    The only constant I'm pissed about is Boltzmann's constant, b = R/n. Seriously, WTF? What a bastard, he can just divide 2 constants and name the result after himself?

    its not a V, its a "nu" (greek letter for N whose simbol is a curled v) and it represents the frecuency of the light wave.
