I watch a group called Russia Abandoned, which posts pictures of spectacular architecture in the former Societ Union that has fallen into ruins. This link:


http://community.livejournal.com/ru_abandoned/398697.html

documents a palace in Kishinev (no idea it was a government or private building since I can't read Russian) that was especially beautiful. But what is truly outrageous is that one grafitto on it proclaims '50 Cent.' I can hardly articulate the ira at seeing modernity destroying beauty--the indignity of even having to know what that means.
