Thats really cool... If you were born on Feburary 29 you could be 40 but techinically only be 10.......

But is that how it actually works? Cause then if you wanted to run for preisdent you'd have to be 140 years old..

Yes its strange. I guess their thinking was that if you were armed with a spoon and your enemy with a sword... you'd have to be -too-much-more-skilled-then-the-average-soldier to win.

I'm not really sure what this whole thing is about but here is a random fact from my dad:

Bannanas and ceramic toilet bowls are more radioactive than regular 'things' because everything has some radioactivity.

No matter what color, what scent, or what company it is made from, soap is SOAP!
