Quantum Gloves
  The slogan "information is physical" has been so successful that it led to some excess. Classical and quantum information can be thought of independently of any physical implementation. Pure information tasks can be realized using such abstract c- and qu-bits, but physical tasks require appropriate physical realizations of c- or qu-bits. As illustration we consider the problem of communicating chirality. We discuss in detail the physical resources this necessitates, and introduce the natural concept of "quantum gloves", i.e. rotationally invariant quantum states that encode as much as possible the concept of chirality and nothing more.
