That's pretty awesome. I can't say Thompson's body of work inspired me to write, for that is pretty much accredited to my mum alone, but he certainly inspired me to rethink how I write.
I always figured that some of the most entertaining writers in the world just happened to be flippin' nuts. Those that push the limit of their sanity as equally as the limit of the written word with fantastical results.
The distance between insanity and genius is measured only by success.
