In addition, fermions are automatically quenched, so planar QCD should be cheaper to solve numerically that full QCD. Large N is a relatively unexplored and worthwhile direction of research in lattice field theory.22 pages, 13 figures, plenary talk at LATTICE 2005, Trinity College, Dublin, July 25-30, 2005High Energy Physics - Latticetext
