It is easiest to contact me via email, but my number here is: If Jeff has a number and time he wishes to speak to me, perhaps I can call him? Also, just a note, I had some muck racker reporter from the Daily Mail on Sunday try to approach me last week to inquire about Jeffrey and Ghislaine, etc. as well as my own relationship with Jeffrey. Apparently, she is contacting people who are listed as being supported by his Foundation, as she referred to that. This is what I wrote back: " I do not know him because of anything to do with Ghislaine Maxwell. I have known him only because I do research and have published and done some interesting work in cognitive science, and that is one of his specific interests, and he is friends with a number of scientists that I am friends with, and supports various philanthrophic endeavors in science. Jeffrey and I have only discussed esoteric scientific topics, and I would be happy to discuss the contents of those discussions, but I am afraid that they would bore your readers (although I think they are quite interesting!) because they have to do with quantum computing, various theories regarding the brain (that most interesting of mysteries), theoretical physics, and various ways to increase the ability to innovate and create. I have known Jeffrey completely independently of any connection to Ghislaine Maxwell, and we never ever have even discussed her. Nor have I ever been in his company when she was around. Ghislaine Maxwell is not a topic of interest to me. Also, neither Jeffrey Epstein or his Foundation have ever supported my research EFTA_R1_00226926 EFTA01841260 interests, although I helped him once to put together a conference with some leading scientists and thinkers in the past." She didn't respond further. I hope this will be helpful. let me know if Jeffrey wants to speak.
