> "Al Vezza, Infocom’s CEO (and someone with no sense of humor whatsoever), was showing him around."

Albert Vezza cofounded the World Wide Web Consortium with Tim Berners-Lee, so that is big plus in my book:

"So Vezza talked Berners-Lee into coming to MIT, where the two of them cofounded the World Wide Web Consortium, or W3C, with Berners-Lee as director and Vezza as chair. Under their leadership, what started as a tentative collaboration between MIT and CERN has evolved into a group that spans hundreds of technology companies, laboratories, and research groups around the world. Over the years, W3C members have worked together to flesh out the standards of HTTP and develop others that are now as ubiquitous as they are essential." https://www.technologyreview.com/2018/10/23/139540/farewell-...
