[QUOTE="James from London, post: 149105, member: 22"] I get the impression that Sid, like all Soap Land businessmen, had built KLM up from scratch. Of course, the family could have lived elsewhere in Knots Landing before moving to the cul-de-sac. In this instance, according to Sable, [I]"Hitler admired Stahl’s work so he stole everything the man ever painted from galleries and museums, off the living room walls of the people he had shuttled into concentration camps, and none of his paintings were ever seen again."

Dex: Scholars — you mean war criminals? Blake: The official word was these people were facing persecution by the communists. Anyway, for arranging the transport he was paid in artwork supposedly owned by these people. Dex: Then when your father needed a place to hide it all there was the Colterton mining project.
