There was no Leap Year in 1900, nor 1800, nor 1700, but there was one in 1600 and 2000.)
There have been about 499 Leap Days by they way.
But the Native Americans say the White Man is dumb for thinking the world will end. Cycles repeat. They say it will be a great change, and the world might not be the same as before...but it is not an ending. But perhaps a beginning.
