Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish the national impact of his work. While the petitioner created a personal website for mathematics education, he did not provide evidence of its widespread use, such as visitor statistics or links from other established sites, to prove it had a national scope or significant influence. The AAO found that unsupported assertions by counsel do not constitute evidence, and the petitioner's past record did not justify projections of future benefit to the national interest.
