From the recent _News Of The Weird_, this example of human motivation:
* In June, the Iowa State Historical Society finally opened long-
embargoed boxes of self-published, highly-detailed,
autobiographical journals donated by a not-particularly-prominent
architect named Charles Remey, who died in 1979 and who was
apparently obsessed with making sure the public was not denied
his life story. In describing the collection, a Des Moines
Register writer wrote that one of the volumes, "The Wardrobe of
Gertrude Heim Remey," Charles's wife, was "quite likely the
best book ever written about his wife's clothes." [Des Moines
Register, 6-7-95]
