You know, normally I don’t have anything against monument protection. I understand that there are historical places and buildings whose simple existence in the way that they were created needs to be conserved. Nothing should be changed so that generations after us can still look at them and enjoy their sight or recognize their importance that they used to have to or that they kept.
But why on earth does an ugly looking fence like this one at one of the university buildings downtown need to be protected like the sign says at it? What is so special about it, did Einstein or Humboldt lean against it while they were here?
Because, it can not be the look of this fence.
