Having single-handedly invented WWW is a nonsense, put a failed physicist aside reinventing himself. Not to mention [S]GML, the stuff wired though using RPC. Claiming credit for other's hard work and even visions without attribution is even worse, especially in science ("Institute for Web Science"? wtf). There have been lots of prior art graphical networked markup hypertext systems, ie. Xerox, Walker's Symbolics Document Examiner etc. Having used the interface builder to dump the stuff coming from the network?
So you're angry because others did similar work before TBL, and because TBL is the one who got famous, you think that he is a manipulative sociopath. I see.
Clearly none of the people involved before had the spark of whatever it takes to turn it from an interesting project into something that sparked the imagination of everyone around them by giving it it's essential context. For some reason you don't seems to see that as being valuable. I see it as another form of genius.

I am bitter because of the manipulative sociopaths abusing their position and power.
