...literally THOUSANDS of times in the 40+ years since it was first released. Yet, it was only about a month ago when I was listening to it, something occurred to me! Now, I MAY be wrong, which is why I'm posting this, but it appears that Herrmann didn't use Clarinets in this score!!! Am I wrong about this? I sure can't hear any!

There's a guy on the site named Jim Cleveland who seems to know everything there is to know about this score. Hopefully he will see your thread.

It appears you're correct. Bill Wroebel has posted a detailed analysis of the score at http://www.filmscorerundowns.net/herrmann/obsession.pdf

His main site is http://www.filmscorerundowns.net/herrmann/index.html

Hey, THANKS, waxonwaxoff!big grin I didn't even think about Bill doing a breakdown of the score! BTW... how's he doing? I don't think he posts to the Herrmann board anymore. I hope he's okay!
