This article has a very good explanation of how detonation occurs and why it can destroy an engine in a matter of seconds if it is allowed to continue.  I would recommend everyone that does not understand the process Kevin Cameron described, to read and re-read the article until you do understand.  The majority of the heat related piston failures are caused by detonation.
