I have lived along the SP in oregon during the 70s thru the early 90s and have viewed a lot of Grafitti over the years. It didn't seem to erupt until the 'Gang" culture spread out of LA and the need to leave ones mark as a territory boundry became a gang necesity. Before the artsy bad spelling blotches of the modern era, grafitty seemed to be small and personal. I remember specifically the well chalked signature of "Water Bed Lou" I have always wondered who he was and how he came to put his signature on so many RR cars <br />Jennifer
