I am reading the Simmons testimony with intense interest, but had to stop to digest the three-way mixed metaphor:

"natural gas was headed for a train wreck that
would then boomerang into our electricity grid. "

Imagine that wrecked train spiraling around and getting tangled in a grid--and all of it made of natural gas.

Block that metaphor! (as they used to write of passages like that in The New Yorker.)
