Only if there were no February 29. My point is that the leap day appears to be at the end of the year if you don't bother with months and just use day-of-year. Just as the idea that February 29 is the leap day originates in looking at the ordinal day-of-month. Traditionally the leap day was "ante diem bis VI Kalendas Martias", located some days before the end of the month. -zefram _______________________________________________ LEAPSECS mailing list LEAPSECS@leapsecond.com http://six.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/leapsecs
