>> Fox jobs have almost completely dried up in the Los Angeles area. For the last 3 yrs when I would call a recruiter I was told that any Fox jobs they would get me would typically involve helping someone to convert existing Fox programs to VB. <<
You don't judge job openings by recruiters, though I agree there's a fair amount of "embalming" work out there. Usually, it's retiring old Fox 2.6 applications.
There's a guy at our user group (and you've been there) that has an open call for four VFP developers, for starters.
