To me, the answer "implied" the next non-leap year is 3000, but it's actually in 2100. Not to matter - I won't live it but perhaps my kids & grandkids will. Interesting question - I learn a lot with this game.

I wrote a computer program wants to figure this out. Leap year isn't too bad it's Easter that's the bad calculations. but that's another story.
