Dear Robbie, I am afraid your translation was not right.  I said:

> Comme on dit en francais : "plus on est de fous, plus on rit".

You translated :

>["As one says in French: 'The crazier you become, the more you laugh.'"
>[Is that about you or me?  Or maybe the both of us!  ;)  -- Robbie

Definitely both of us.  The real translation should be something like :

 "The more the number of crazy people gathered together increases,
  the more these people will laugh".

(You said that about 1100 subscribe to the MMD ?)

Amities,
