Ok... now I get the idea that everyone agrees that by alternating pallettes and
partial scan lines we could achieve a very flickering illusion of 32 colors on
a scan line.  Now, a few questions:

If the screen refesh rate was 1/30th of a second, how much would this flicker? 
I've seen an Amiga in interlace mode many a time.  Would this flicker more than
an Amiga flickers in interlace mode on a cheap monitor?

How about the number of scanlines that could be completely rewritten before the
screen catches up to it on a standard IIgs?
