Interesting. It would be a bit more legitimate of if the difference was between standing and sitting bus drivers (assuming there was some way to stand and drive a bus). Or, straight to the point, if there was a study involving standing programmer and sitting programmers... preferably one in which the roles were randomized, because I'd suspect that programmers who've already chosen to stand while they work are probably a more health-conscious lot as it is.
