My personal opinion is that we have been going through a technology 
"backlash" for the past 3 years. All those Web wannabe's overcharged in 
the 90s and the pebdulum has swung to the other extreme. People simply 
do not want to pay New York prices for contracting work (that is, if you 
can find any contracting work at all in the first place). Its all very 
depressing. Makes you want to just quit and go work on a farm.
