Colombo had it in spades ! !!

Doubtful HPL had it. He was enormously creative, but not obessive about anything I've ever read.

I have been reading Hans Christian Anderson's autobiography and biography (Danish source), I don't believe he had it. I do think his intellectual rival, Soren Kierkegaard did. Kierkegaard was made fun of for his verbosity and ability to write way above his audience. He was obsessive and intellectually accomplished at a very young age. HCA parodied him in a story/play by making him the parrot who repeats himself. Kierkegaard is considered the Grandfather of Existentialism.

It's possible that HCA was AS but I think there were very strong external forces that made him who he was. He had to fight very hard to maintain his sanity while growing up in a very critical, corrupt society with extremes of wealth and poverty.

I don't think Mozart had it either. I think he was either bipolar or just severely depressed compounded with alcoholism.

You're probably right. I've been getting all this from a website that says Michael Jackson also has it.
