Leap Year is every four years
EXCEPT for those divisible by 100
EXCEPT for those divisible by 400.

So 1980 is, but 1900 isn't, but 2000 is.

Yeah, well, Edison is vastly overrated anyway. He had a good PR department. I'll give him that. Nikola Tesla. Now that's a guy that rocked. Our entire system of electricity is based on that guy's work.
