yep, if you average it. however, because the leap year occurs every 4 years, non-leap years work out to a nice and even 7 days.

Yes. There are also four days to each single rotation of earth (http://www.timecube.com/). Or something. This site makes my brain hurt.

Actually you've got it all wrong. There are exactly 7 days in a week. However there are 52.142857142857142857142857142857etc days in a year.

Since I got to Chicago I've gotten the feeling that it's more along the lines of 4 or 5 days a week.

That would be 52,142857... weeks, not days, right? And I could have been riding my bike instead of writing this :D.

there are about 365.24 days in a full lap around the sun this is why we have leap year every for years otherwise the calender would shift 24 days a century eventually(730 years) putting January in the middle of summer(winter Down under) and in about 1460 years Jan would have made the whole trip to be back in its place in the heart of winter(or summer down under)

And which nerd thought to call them "leap" years anyway? Do they dance for us or something?

But since it is 396 years until the next non-leap leap year it's nothing we have to worry about :).

8 days a week. The Beatles.

FYI, the song was originally 8 arms to hold you, octopus carnival ride.
