In all my live I have never seen Upper Level Management move this fast.

Doing an "april fools" prank before April 1st is IMO pretty lame.

Agree 100% ... but maybe that was the only window of opportunity they had ... Who knows?

All in all it would have taken a lot of planning

They did it before April 1st to avoid suspicion (explained in the article)... which worked.

Obviously, it was a great March 31st, April fools day, prank.
