Buckminster Fuller kept an exhaustive journal from 1920 until he died. He called it the Dymaxion Chronofile. You can read more about it here: http://www-sul.stanford.edu/depts/spc/fuller/about.html

Granted, not as tidy as 85 notebooks, but I read he kept it as a "scrapbook" and documented his life every 15 minutes.

Someone named Robert Shields documented every 5 minutes of his life for 25 years... The nutbar typed 37.5 million words:
