This article was also being discussed on local talk radio this morning.

One fellow told the story of a bunch of men (in the US), who had worked with nitro-glycerin for years, and all died of heart attacks within 18 months of retiring. Apparently, their bodies had adapted to the exposure over the years, and when the exposure was lost, their bodies couldn’t adjust again so fast.

Has anyone else heard of this story?

Haven’t heard that one. It’s interesting to think about those men making it to retirement.
