Comment (by sabreuse):

 As noted in the WCAG guidelines, the 4.5:1 level is required for normal
 text; large text (18+ points for normal weights or 14+ points for bold)
 requires 3:1; level AA is what we talked about, so I edited the title for
 accuracy. ref: http://www.w3.org/TR/UNDERSTANDING-WCAG20/visual-audio-
 contrast-contrast.html

 18pt ~= 24px; 14pt ~= 18.667px
