Somewhat dated BUT, this is NOT the El Norte America impact we have been reading about for the last several years. Given their confessed faith in gradualism, I doubt few from the Scientific Community™ would accept the notion yet that the Pleistocene/Holocene event may have included multiple impacts around the globe. The article seems to imply this.
Dr. Robert Schoch, who I find to be a fairly credible witness tends to believe massive solar storms from our sun may have been the culprit. I suppose both could have happened and been contributing factors. Me, I dunno...

First article I’ve run across implying possible multiple impacts leading to the Younger Dryas. I may have missed something though ;^)

Even though it happened 12,900 years ago, it was still Bush’s fault.

“If a comet, which would have been traveling at about 30 miles per second, impacted Earth’s atmosphere, it would have created a flash of extreme heat reaching about 3,000 to 4,000 degrees Fahrenheit (1,600 to 2,200 degrees Celsius).”
I bet that’s how we got red hot chili peppers. Aiee! Carramba! (Sic)
