There's no question people percieve vastly higher frame rates than that. Just set a large CRT monitor to 60Hz or so, and you'll almost certainly be massively annoyed by the flicker. Take a 60fps video, play it normally, then again with framestep=3 for 1/3rd of the frames (20fps), and tell me you don't notice any difference... And now for some technical details on eyes, resolution, and fps: http://hardware.slashdot.org/comments.pl?sid=230181&cid=18677583 -- Ha. I'm the idiot.
