I understand how medical equipment originally costing thousands of dollars can be left behind in these abandoned buildings, because it's obsolete and not worth the expense of moving it. But it always amazes me to see Mott's pics of food service equipment like this that's rusting away in boarded-up buildings. Any city of any size has numerous businesses that deal in used restaurant equipment; commercial food service equipment lasts forever and sells for plenty of money. Used commercial dishwashers, for instance, sell for thousands of dollars, and machines 20, 30, 40 years old are still in use all over the place.
Seriously, how old are we, six? Can't most adults healthy enough to explore an abandoned building also control their bowels?
Graffiti always makes me wonder why such people have such a screaming need to make their presence known to all who come after. What deeply-rooted insecurity makes it impossible for them to pass through a place without making their mark? Why is it so necessary to be noticed?
Damn, you're good.
