So here we are on that day that we get only once every four years, Leap Day, February 29th.

0:19.0

We need this day to keep the calendar from becoming all out of whack. So a year is 365

0:29.0

days, five hours and 48 minutes. I think I got that right. And so without adding an extra day to the calendar once every four years, things would

1:51.7

So I was wondering, wouldn't it be great if leap day was kind of like when we turn the clocks back and we get an extra hour to kind of do with what we want.
