I made phone calls to all (10 + 2) successfully left messages for 8 but the following 4 had issues,
Sen. Cornyn's and Sen. McConnell's office phone systems do not direct you to a voicemail system (I was calling after office hours so I couldnt speak to someone either), and,
I get a 'voicemail machine full' message from the Reid and Martinez offices.
Wonder if anyone else has faced the same problem.
Will try those 4 again tomorrow

Thank you all for your wonderful responses, I am overwhelmed by the feedback. Some of you have posted such detailed things and personal information, for which I am very grateful. I intend to print out the thread and keep it on my desk for instant inspiration :)
Matthew Oh has summarised the predicament of folks in a situation such as mine:
12/16/2007: India EB-2 Retrogression for Two Years and 2002 and 2001 Priority Date Applications
Traditionally, the legacy INS and USCIS have been exercising its discretion more or less expediting those cases whose visa numbers would be retrogressed substantially to relieve them from the hardship. We have no information available about the number of Indian EB-2 cases with the priority dates between January 2002 and January 2000. These cases are available for adjudication in December 2007. These cases could have been those received approval of the traditional labor certification cases which were approved before October 1, 2007 by the DOL Backlog Elimination Centers. Unfortunately, the huge retrogression will occur during the nation's most celebrated year-end holiday period when the working days and adjudication resources will be very limited. We trust that the USCIS leaders are and will be doing everything possible to adjudicate these Indian cases before the end of the year.

All 140K GCs are available on Oct 1. However, dates were not current in 2005 and 2006. I think that current dates do not depend on available GCs.
Looks like current dates depend on # submitted AOS's. USCIS is saying that on Jul 2 it has submitted AOS's that exhaust submitted AOS quota.

This issue cannot be solved through Lawsuit. What are the other alternatives?
What are reasons .. as to why it cant be solved by lawsuit ?? Are u afraid that they might stop processing any I-485 applications for EB2-I until the lawsuit gets resolved ??

funny thing, this SunnySurya guy happens to be from a small consulting company with 8 people out of which everyone got audited and at one point he says he does not know if his application is Eb3 or Eb2 and he is trying to figure it out.
Then he comes with filing a lawsuit against porting from EB3 to EB2
Funny guy, once you get your hand in the cookie jar you want no one near it eh?
What are you really afraid of?
I will help you in this but do us all a favor and don't reply to any more messages....

There is a 99% chance of a TV crew covering this event. I just spoke with them and they are just working out the logistics. They will reach the USCIS office at around 12 PM and said that it would be great if some of us are available around that time to talk to them.
Any D.C. area people interested in going there, please send me a private message with your name and phone number so that we can talk and work out the logistics.
Man, that is interesting. Great effort by english_august. I am in california, otherwise would have definately been there.

Your help would be highly appreciated![/QUOTE]
Thank you so much nagsen0,

I feel a little bit better now.
I would like to see that source.

Is there anyone who is with me, anyone at all? I need around 15 people to kick this off...
I am just looking for three things
a) A letter that we will jointly send to few people. Urging them to follow a fair system.
b) Talk to your lawyer to discss with AILA
c) Talk to you chapter leader.
I have not read your controversial posts others are referring to but about this one, this is a genuine cause and I am with you for this.

Gym, yoga, work, birds - these things are just escape from reality. The reality is pretty grim. Imagine a new wanna be immigrant. He/she has basically two choices:
1. Ask for asylum, come up with some story, try to get interview passed. If works - then that's it. If not, ask judge for work permit (usually they grant). And go through hearings, appeals, etc. etc. - takes total 5 years. Meanwhile, work whenever you want. make money, find a girl (or a guy for girls), marry - get your GC. At worst case scenario - you get caught, put on deportation, you cash your credit cards - and leave with $200k in your pocket. So, at worst - you get deported - which is fair.
2. You read the law, you see that your only legal option is EB and you spend 6-8 years going through H1/LC/140/485, etc. Lose money, pay lawyers, pay taxes, miss opportunities. Even after you get GC, some douche bag IO might have a bad day, review your LC/140 and revoke it at any time until you get citizenship for some little reason. Even citizenship may be revoked because of "fraud". How many of you have LC done completely honestly, with interviewing all candidates and stuff like that? Meanwhile, if your company/lawyer screwed something up - you get deported, and you lost 10 best years of your life for nothing. In best case scenario, you get GC - which is fair.
So in 1st case we have fair-win situation, in second - lose-fair. So, can anybody give me ONE reason why we chose 2nd way? Please don't start with "good karma" and things like that. But for real? What is that? What message USCIS is sending us? America is a country of law or a country of criminal opportunists?
To me personally, this immigration thing is just a matter of principle, I'm not leaving without GC, period. I'm ready to have any of my stuff revoked, I'm ready for court battles - at the end I will marry a citizen. Reason? I don't wanna feel being a loser.

Just a small correction, we are not asking to end discrimanting against 'Indians'. It is asking to stop discrminating against anybody, be it Indian, Chinese etc...We are not asking for discriminating ROW. All we are asking is to end discriminating Indians.

Very good recommendations.
here's my list. would love to hear others.
1. listen to music.
e.g. kishore songs.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FjjK_37OpNM
sing !
2. read a good book.
e.g. Emerson essay on compensation.
"For everything you have missed you have gained something else."
http://www.rwe.org/works/Essays-1st_Series_03_Compensation.htm
i think it's a very powerful essay for life.
3. go to the gym. workout. jog. lift weights. play a game.
table tennis really helps.
resolve to be your fittest.
adversity must make us stronger, not weaker.
4. travel internationally
take a trip to some country you've never gone to before.
observe people's olympic struggles.
it's part of the human experience.
5. learn a new skill
something you've always wanted to do but did'nt get around to.
public speaking, dancing, singing...your choice.
take a class at a community college or a university.
6. go to temple or church or mosque.
make a deeper spiritual connection with God.
let him lift some of your burden.
i listened to Hari Om Sharan after many years and experienced a real sense of joy.
7. spend time learning about US government.
get to know more about how government works. why does house vote differently than the senate ?
get to know the 100 senators and 435 house reps. especially how they stand on legal immigration.
our friends on the other side of the fence have done us a favor by organizing this information
http://grades.betterimmigration.com/index.php3
just reverse the grades. consider approaching reps/senators with your situation.
8. learn from IV efforts of previous years
many skills were introduced which could have helped us. what can we learn from what failed ?
e.g. comprehensive immigration bill 2006. it passed in the senate but stalled in the house.
Gandhigiri did work this year. it was a major success story we should celebrate and learn from.
9. accept and enjoy the present.
accept the present moment. breathe.
enjoy nature - the sun, the moon, the heavens, fresh air and water. make new associations and friends.
experiencing these gifts of life is enough to keep one happy.
10. write it out.
record the feelings you are going through in writing.
capture the details.
what was your journey, your expectations, your highs and lows ?
you may see your struggles in a different light 10 years from now.
