  months = (None, # dummy, to start month indices from 1
      "Jan","Feb","Mar","Apr","May","Jun",
      "Jul","Aug","Sep","Oct","Nov","Dec"
  )
  month_number = months.index(month_abbr) # month_abbr == "Aug"

Note:
- time.strptime(month_abbr, "%b").tm_mon may fail in non-English locale
- list(calendar.month_abbr).index(month_abbr) is also locale-specific
