I've seen such figuring, but not the basis.  All the data
contradicts your conclusion.  Look at the relevant
organizations and lists.  How many people have been
interested enough to participate? What incentives will
increase our ranks by a factor of 100? Of 10? Design the
structure according reality rather than fantasy.  We have a
lot of relevant experience.  Why ignore it?
