Not quite true; it's trivia time. Every year is actually 365.2425 days. Leap year is every year divisible by 4, except years that are divisible 100, unless it is divisible by 400. So what does that mean? 1700, 1800, & 1900 were not leap years, now 2000 was (probably why most don't know about this rule), and 2100, 2200, & 2300 will not be leap years.
I thought it was 365.242189 days per year. ;-)
