Ran across this and thought it'd make good fodder for discussion.
Dr. Alan Schoonmaker wrote in The Psychology of Poker that psych tests have shown there are two occupations in which the "players" are tight/aggressive: police officers and fighter pilots.

Did you know that participating in a poker forum can help you improve your own game? Be it by sharing experiences or simply asking for help, participation in a forum helps you focus and keep 'on topic' which will help you improve your game. You can learn from other players feedback and from their experiences. Why the THP poker forums? We offer one of the best managed texas holdem poker forums available, and the community within is far more friendly than those typicaly found on other sites. We've made a 'lurkers edition' of the poker forum available here on Holdem Poker Online, but we encourage all visitors to register and join in on the conversations on TexasHoldem-Poker.com
