Aside from sober's statement, most anyone in IT that is involved with a product that is continually being developed and refined over the period of years, could tell you nearly the same thing.
Development is done by many people, and people leave for one reason or another. With their departure, someone has to come in behind them at some point and figure out what was done. When it was a year or two after that programmer has left, it becomes a bit harder to figure out, and not every programmer thinks, codes, or comments the same way. The older it is, the more people have worked on it, the more muddled it becomes.
Whats really interesting is when something works, and nobody can figure out why, but they do know is if they change something, it breaks.
