Wilson has been taken aback by the amount of opposition to his plan to cancel February!
Some of it was just personal (eg 'My birthday is in February!' and 'What about leap-year?' etc) but I think what swung W's decision was that the rotating Black Hole he'd need to use to edit Space-Time would very likely end life on Earth as we know it. He'd thought he'd need nothing more than a calendar and a Biro!
So, now that he's regained his composure, he's agreed to leave February in place and just re-name it BeNiceToEveryoneruary instead of Furbruary — while lamenting that it doesn't have the same catchy ring to it!
He's also emailed the Astronomer Royal to ask him to leave February as it is. For the time being, at least...
