I'm a pilot with over 40 years of flying experience. Never wanted to be an airline pilot. Too boring. Many of my pilot buddies are airline pilots. Steves article is very disturbing. Time to contact these guys (most are retired) to see just what the hell is going on. As a group, they are generally in good health(due partly to FAA requirements) and rarely have health issues. I will get back to you all with what they have to say.
