title: How to parse a month name (string) to an integer for comparison in C#?
body: <p>I need to be able to compare some month names I have in an array.</p>
  
  <p>It would be nice if there were some direct way like:</p>
  
  <pre><code>Month.toInt("January") &gt; Month.toInt("May")
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>My Google searching seems to suggest the only way is to write your own method, but this seems like a common enough problem that I would think it would have been already implemented in .Net, anyone done this before?</p>
