   Taking the limit of c => infinity suggests that the inertia would   
   become infinite, not zero, provided hbar remains finite.  I'm not   
   sure the wave function makes sense anymore if hbar goes to zero.   
   If hbar also goes to zero as c goes to infinity, then it would   
   depend on how fast each goes to the limits.  One case would give   
   infinite inertia and the other would give zero, maybe.  It isn't   
   clear since we don't know what energy and momentum really are.
