The way leap years are handled is that if the year is devisible by 4, it's
a leap year, unless the year is devisible by 400, in which case it is not
considered a leap year.  <shrug> I know, because I had to write some
software that handled dates from 1583 (the beginning of our current
calendar dating system) up until some indefinite period in the future.
And I'm happy to say, it properly handled both leap years and y2K
problems. :)
