    Default Leap Year B-Day

    If someone is born on Febuary 29, when is there B-Day the following year, March 1, or Febuary 28??? Or do they celebrate there B-Day every 4 years.

    Their birthday would be on March 1st because that's 365 days later.

    Where as Febuary 28th is only 364 days later.

    I am in no way responsible for the above post. It was my hand's fault. Bad hand.

    On a technicality, they would celebrate their birthday every four years since it's the day of their birth according to our calenders. However, due to the fact that it's been generalized to having 1 birthday every 365 days, it would be on March 1st.

    OK, uhm...

    Every March the 1st...

    Then, every four years, on February the 29th, yes...?

    So that would make my birthday come on December the 17th every leap year, what with that extra day rubbing in and stuff...

    and then, you would have to have a leap birthday in order to make it past the extra day when a leap year does come around
