From parent comment's link:
> Unbeknownst to me, the day prior, July 4th 2011, Richard Dawkins reached out to John Brockman with a question. Brockman was a powerful New York literary agent who ran Edge.org, which was bankrolled by Jeffrey Epstein. Brockman served as a connection between Epstein and all the various scientists and public intellectuals Epstein wanted to meet, and so his name shows up a LOT in these files. Here’s what Brockman looks like, in a photo taken of him along with Steven Pinker, Daniel C. Dennett, Katinka Matson, and, oh, Richard Dawkins from one time they flew on Jeffrey Epstein’s plane together.
