Listening to PoD, the Sea Folk apparently have 300-400 Windfinders, and the Aes Sedai estimate is around 1,000.
That's right - we're talking about the Sea Folk, whose entire population probably adds up to less than that of the city of Tar Valon. Yet, they have such a high proportion of trained channelers.
What could be the reason for AS being so bad at recruiting? IMO, it's the snobbish "we're better than you - bow down to us now" aloofness.
Any WT apologists care to defend the tower's recruitment efforts?

All of these, plus Redqueen, but really: breeding? They may be AS, but they're still human... *NM*
