I agree, Snuffy. I have had worse obsessions too .... like eating disorder/overexercise issues, where I literally could not eat starchy stuff like bread without feeling ill, like I'd get fat (even though I was skinny as a rail, about 100 lbs) and could not go a day, except Sunday, without running!
I know the difference between obsession and avid interest, between out of control compulsion and a simpler compelling interest/desire .... I know when I'm crossing the line into immoderation.
