It's like going to a museum and seeing chewing gum stuck to the sides of the exhibits.
I agree with you, but on a fun side-note, I remember climbing the bell tower of a centuries-old church in the middle of nowhere, and being staggered by the amount of Victorian-era graffiti carved in to the walls.
I guess that the need to write "TOM WOZ 'ERE" goes back a long way.
It's funny, new graffiti is vandalism, but old graffiti becomes history in and of itself. At the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York, they have an entire Egyptian temple that at some point was shipped across the ocean, and to me the most fascinating part of it was the graffiti left by occupying British soldiers long after it was built. Go figure.
