I need help.  This is a leap year and I know that every 4 years we add a day to Feruary because the earth rotates around the sun  at the rate of 365 1/4 days .  But I would have sworn that in the year 2000 I heard that when leap year is in the first year of a new century there is not a day added to February as the earth's rotation is really slightly less than 365 1/4 days around the sun.

Did I imagine that or does anyone else remember the same thing?
