One more note:
 
If you're going to put motion to your sim AND the motion does not follow the
visual cues within 20 ms AND the motion is not 'good' enough to fool your
brain: you're going to be sick!!
 
please note that 'stick following' motion is not 'good' enough. It's fun for
a while but not after you get sick.
