IMHO, this doesn't really strike me as farfetched at all, the terrorists seem to be extremely intelligent and resourceful, utilizing whatever they can as weapons of terror.
Farfetched is what caught us by surprise in the first place...

I think the "farfetched" notion was in reference to the logistics of the actual plan. In other words, it's highly feasible to fly a passenger jet into a skyscraper, but it's damned impossible to blow up a whole apartment complex using the natural gas lines.
One apartment might blow, but then the remaining gas lines would simply become torches after that (not grenades).
