Video of the Day: Today Looks at Subway Reefs

This morning the Today Show took a look at the subway cars that retire from the underground of New York, and (at the cost of the MTA) are sent to create artificial reefs off the coasts of other cities. (The program may soon benefit us as well, however.) Consider the below clip subway-reef-porn, with footage of the old cars being made suitable for the sea, and dumped off barges to meet their final watery resting place.

They also note that Maryland is awaiting a delivery next week (so look out for something like this), and Lester Holt wonders if there are fish tagging graffiti down there.
