Dear Ms. Ward, Thank you for your letter of December 19th further documenting your negligent, irresponsible, vague reporting style. First with respect to my house. If you recall you asked me on numerous occasions, whether I had purchased #9 outright. You followed up with a similar question to Mr. Wexner on at least 2 occasions, I have told you repeatedly that yes in fact I did purchase it out right and you tirelessly repeated "then why were there no transfer taxes paid?" I explained in writing that transfer taxes are in most instances not made public. After sending you documentation on #9's transfer taxes, you then continued on #11. Also in writing, I told Graydon that I never owned #11. Add that to the fact that Graydon has told me that #11 is not part of the story and once again, like a Gospel choir, you chant: "but what about the transfer taxes?" Enclosed please find a copy of the transfer taxes paid confirming me only as a trustee and once again requiring me to spend more time on questions whose relevance you have yet to describe. In that regard your question in your latest letter regarding refuting the claims of I hope the copy of this letter when give to Vanity Fair's lawyers, will at last give them cause for concern. I think you will agree that the only quote claim that you describe to me was that EFTA00576862
