I've always believed/known that climate change could be quick.  You and 
I grew up in an era where it was taught that all processes are slow and 
gradual, but we all know there must be balance.  The Grand Canyon is a 
prime example...been there for millions of years, but a lot of erosion 
happened catastrophically in floods...
