 * Hi,
 * Does anyone know if there is a plugin or a good way to manipulate multiple categories?
 * I have a large number of categories under a main year based category and now 
   I need to recreate all 2012 sub categories under a new main category of 2013.
   This has to be done whilst leaving the old data and structor intack.
