Sorry the problems with your guys.

That is pure conjecture on your part. If the data provided by INS is faulty, is it THEIR problem, and THEY should fix it. GAO HAS stated that there's a problem with INS, so what is it about this that you don't get?

Sorry, I'm of the school that who ever handled the data last is the ones that screwed things up, if the INS data is bad they could massage it, or at least point out that the INS data they're using sucks and has numerous apparent duplicates. The ones I pointed out present 270 H1B workers, if I'm right and they're erroneous duplicates they would only represent 80 H1B workers. That's a serious swing that changes the scope of the problem dramatically.
