David,
Sarbanes-Oxley is looking more and more to me like the Technical
Writers' Full Employment Act. At the large consulting firm I work
for, we are looking to pair tame finance MBAs and/or CPAs with tech
writers and sell them to clients as compliance teams. I think it's
entirely possible for this to be full-time work for one or more
writers at a large firm.
