RE: More about the changes coming to tech writing

Sorry to get all numerical here, but the number of tech writing jobs in the US is actually projected to *increase*:

Of course, government projections are based only on historical data and current industry information. But does anyone have any *data* to suggest that the number of tech writing jobs will decrease?
