"It is warming up faster."

I think this issue is answered in subsequent comments. The sediment data (varves) seems to show it among other things.

"Selling my beach property."

I am not rushing right out to do this. You should notice I said in the next ten years. By that time the trends or successful counteractions should be evident. I can then make an intelligent informed decision regarding real estate. I would want to sell before the bulk of the population realizes that low lying property might not be worth very much in the not too distant future.

Actually, as I understand it, the sediment data shows this is unusual rate of change for the last 10,000 years. But if you go back further, the temp has changed even more rapidly than it is now.

Yes, 10 years from now it should be safer to draw some conclusions, agreed. But I'll just bet you a bottle of wine that the story the press is pushing now will turn out to be 100% wrong. If past experience is any indicator!
