well having been a larp coordinator for two different conventions and running (so far) three larps in 2008, no, the LARP scene, at least in the Bay Area, is not dying or on life support. It has grown at all three conventions up there.
I can't comment on non convention based LARPing. LARPing in SLO died pretty hard a few years back. Every now and then I make a small attempt to recessitate it slightly, and it's getting easier to get a few LARPers together every now and then.
LA, the LARP scene, is mostly vampire, which is also growing too. Can't comment on outside California though.
