please tell me that it's leap year

and that feb has an extra day-but only if it's true. so basically-is it leap year?

 

Ok it's a leap year...actually I have no idea, I'm just trying to be helpful.

 

yeah except that this year we're calling feb 29th by a different name. it's going to be called march first

 

heh that was pretty funny

 

Every year divisible by 4 is a leap year, except the centuries (div. by 100), unless the year is also divisible by 400, then it is still a leap year.
How and why they calculated that formula exactly like that, I don't know, but that's how you'll know whether it's a leap year or not.

 

Sorry, no leap year this trip around the sun.

 

leap year was last year

just 28 days this year

 

because the earth revolves around the sun in 365 and 1/4 days. so every 4 years, you will be behind by one day, so you have to compensate for that...... so every 4th year, you have a feb 29th.

 

whats wrong .....do you think there is some bad juju working on you ???

 

what does that mean. No I just wanted an extra day-that's all. alright so was anyone born on feb 29th. Do you only celebrate your birthday every 4 years.

 

isn't it traditional that in a leap year girls ask guys to get hitched, instead of the other way around? damn! i'm gonna miss those proposals - they are so cute and touching

 

people born on 2/29 typically celebrate on 3/1. i knew some twins born on 2/29. every leap year they'd have an extra special blow-out birthday party.

 

Well yes, d'uh, I got that far I meant the detailed thing about no leap year on the centuries, except for every 4th one... that must've taken some calculation to adjust it like that...

 

I never heard anything like that

 

no sweat. i'm from South Africa and here it's tradition. not sure if anywhere else? if not they ought to make it so because its great fun!
