On the CNN Wire it was reported that Hitler was not only a painter, but possibly not too bad of one. The owner of some of Hitler's paintings was trying to sell them to redo his home HVAC system and apparently the paintings fetched a little more than he anticipated.
I like CNN Wire on my reader because I don't really like to subscribe to the paper, I really hate watching the news because it's on late and it's so depressing. So, CNN Wire is good for me because I can browse the headlines and choose only the articles that interest me at that moment. Am I excited that anything Hitler did is being bought or sold-nope, but it's kind of interesting.

I read about that too. Everyone wants to cash-in on history. I do wonder how he ended up with them. I do find it interesting when a painting from some master artist or person of historical importance turns up in an attic or as a door to a chicken coop. It makes you wonder not only about the value of art, but also the journey that the work of art has taken.
