Leap year officially was accepted in 45 BC so ruffly (exact years between BC and AD are not known, best guess is 33 years for the age of Christ at death) 2088 years. so if every 4 years there is 1 extra day. Without leap years/days the date today (Dec 15 2010) would be 522 days less than what we accept as the date, or July 8 2009.
See its not December but July. the whole idea behind leap year is to keep us aligned in our seasonal/astronomical date.
I personally think the formula is not exactly correct as it should probably be more like mid November but that's just my theory.
