on this last day of JULY i think this word is apropos =0)
and VERY cool....

bissextile (by-SEKS-til) adjective

Of or pertaining to the leap year or the extra day in the
leap year.

noun

Leap year.

[From Late Latin bisextilis annus (leap year), from Latin
bissextus
(February 29: leap day), from bi- (two) sextus (sixth), from
the fact that the sixth
day before the Calends of March (February 24) appeared twice
every leap
year or perhaps because 366 has two sixes.]
