I was actually sort of joking about hating the Team20 era. The LSH stories at the time were definitely some of the worst of the Reboot IMO, but the L* ones were, for the most part, really good. And even the LSH series had a couple of gems - specifically the opening issue (#85) and the 1950s story.

As for this question, I'll say the obvious answer...

I'm sure Spark did find it cute, but I'm looking for someone who specifically stated it outright...
and Xben has it, it was Kinetix in LSH 66, her tryout issue!
Back to Xben.
PS, I agree with you that the Team30 team had a lot of good stories (Mordru arc!!) and I appreciated the greater focus on some Team20 Legionnaires (e.g. Spark, Gates, Brainy, Shvaughn)

Because roughly half the team was stranded in the 20th century; teir adventures appeard in the LSH series, Final Night, occasinally in Showcase, plus various x-overs in other DCU books.
Team 30 denotes the team members still in the 30th century, who were appearing in the Legionnaires series. While of course that was the normal era for the Legion (prior to the years 2000 and 3000, of course), the Team 30 term exists to differentiate those team members from those stuck in the past.

Because part of the team (Team20) was in the 20th century, and the rest (Team30) were on the 30th century.

I haven't read them for a while, but overall my memory is that Team 20 / Team 30 was a more enjoyable run that what came afterwards, with the impact of the Space Anomaly, prior to DNA.
OK, it's obscure Silver-Age character time. Here are five scientists who showed up in the early Adventures-era of the LSH. What was each one doing in their one and only (as far as I know) Legion appearance?
Ak Aru Dr. James Bannon Lon Duryal Professor Harding Doctor Karnes
If this proves too difficult, I'll give some big clues before too long

It's better than what came after, but also a huge step down from the stories before the split. IMO, the first year of the reboot was absolutely brilliant, then there was a bit of a dropoff after that first year (which I attribute to Waid leaving), then a pretty big decline after the T20/T30 split (though a few really solid issues, especially the alt-reality stories), and then another big dropoff in quality after the T20/T30 reunion.
Anyway, Lon Duryal made lifelike androids.
I suspect one of them (Ak Aru?) developed the cure for the Tree-Men of Arbro blight.

I have no guesses for the current question but thanks to everyone for answering about Team 20/30.

None of them had anything to do with Bouncing Boy's powers.
So, Lon Duryal was the head scientist at an android factory. Here are the answers for the other four - the question is to now match the scientist to their answer:
1. A guest entomologist visiting Legion headquarters (who brought some glowing bugs that gave Sun Boy his powers back temporarily) 2. A scientist on the doll world planet that Mask Man tied up and impersonated 3. An archeologist who visited Throon (the planet with the two grumpy old men who nearly defeated the entire Legion) 4. A man who had intended to collect statues from every world. Proty II stowed away with him to some world as part of his initiation into the Legion of Super-Pets
