Do people who were born on February 29th live 4 times longer than the rest of us?

My step son’s birthday is 29th February, 1972. In 2012 he will be 40, but it’s only his 10th birthday. His oldest daughter will be 8 in 2012. She’s catching up with Daddy. When he was 24, I ordered a birthday cake on 28th February for his birthday party the next day. I was asked what I wanted written on it and I said, ‘Happy 6th Birthday.’ The shop assistant asked, ‘Is it for a child?’ and I said ‘No. He’ll be 24 tomorrow.’ She said, ‘I don’t understand.’ At that point another shop assistant intervened and said, ‘I know what she means.’ You may think it odd to buy a birthday cake for a 24 year old, but when it only comes round every 4 years, it’s something special. Nerdy: Happy 4th birthday for 2012!
