Leap Year, Leap Day, Leap Minute, Leap Second

Being that is February, its got me to think about the Leap Year. Every 4 years, we add a day because our primitive way of keeping time is off. That means each year is off by 6 hours. Each month misaligned by 30 minutes. That averages out to being in error of 1 minute a day.
