Crews Tear out Remnants of Old N.Y. Fort

(AP)  Crews dredging PCBs from the Hudson River have ripped away remnants of what was once Britain's largest fort in Colonial America.

Neal Orsini says he was awoken around 4 a.m. Friday by the sound of dredging along his riverside property in Fort Edward, north of Albany.

Orsini says he discovered dredgers had torn out the riverbank along with two wooden beams that had been part of the fort's waterfront bastion. A third beam was later found still buried.

He says crews were supposed to stay away from that stretch of river bank because of its archaeological significance.

General Electric is dredging PCBs from the river bottom as part of a $750 million cleanup project. A GE spokesman didn't immediately return a call.

Gee whiz, that's GE and NBC! They are ripping out the remnants of one of the largest forts of Colonial America. This is the same network as Conan the Barbarian and Olbermann the Doberman. Where is Michael Vick when you need him? Oh yes, Philadelphia!

Okay, give me a hint. What does the above story have to do with NBC? Not trying to pick a fight, I just don't understand the connection.
