I totally agree.

Grid systems are great, but not in the way they're being used today - with lots presentational of classes and ids in the markup.

Are we going back to the days of tables for layout? Look, classes like span-x, grid-y, append-x describe only the presentation of the content. I thought HTML was meant to describe structure, not layout.

Grid systems are destroying the semantic web.

EDIT:

Other classes-littered systems aren't any better (OOCSS, I'm looking at you).
