H-1B ping. Let me know if you're not on the list and want to be added (or are and want to be removed).

Please add me to the H-1B list. Anyhow, Malkin gives the source for the analysis that finds problems with Zavodny's data in footnote 66 of Chapter 3 in her new book "Sold Out" as http://econdataus.com/amjobs0.htm. At the bottom of that page are links to the R source code to reproduce these numbers. In addition, the 110 jobs lost for 2002-2008 can be seen in the second to the last table in Section 16 at http://econdataus.com/amjobs1.htm#section16 . This all shows the importance in not accepting numbers from any study that has not been replicated and verified. Zavodny's paper is merely a "working paper" that has never been peer-reviewed, much less replicated and verified. And yet there are references to scores of people, some with very big names, who have mindlessly parroted the 2.62 number at this link.
