Wait, wait, wait.  Occassionally over the years, there have been
people calling for the Legion's size to shrink, wondering how all
these silly losers got in in the first place.

This is the first time I've ever seen the argument that the LNH, with
at least four-hundred plus members, is not big _enough_. :-)

I've always seen it the same way; the LNH is not so much a hero team
as they are a family or, if you like, a giant support group.  Loony
eccentrics who annoy and love each other.

An excellent point.
