New Comment:
But would choosing Feb.28 really be any more correct? If I told you on
January 30 that I would come back in exactly one month to beat the crap
out of you, when would you think I would show up?

when strtotime is asked to create a timestaml +1 month in the future,
and is given a timestamp that happens on a day that does not exist in
the next month. A timestamp a few days beyond one month in the future
is created.
Example:
<?php
$now = strtotime("2003-01-30");
$nextmonth = strtotime("+1 month", $now);
print date("Y-m-d", $nextmonth);
?>
the output from this script is
2003-03-02
since February has no 30th day, apparently strtotime just adds 30 days
to whatever timestamp it is given to go one month in the future, hence
March 2nd.
