I refute this statement based on my own anecdotal experience. From what I've seen, Boston area job openings have picked up alot recently.
Rational had several open reqs for curriculum developers/trainers. Other companies where tech writing openings have come across my desk include EasyAsk, Avid, Pega, and Workscape.
A year ago, I was seeing 1 every 6 months. Now I am seeing 1 every week or two.
