I always wondered what kind of drugs those guys were on when they came
up with the leap-year system... :P
One interesting side note to the op's problem, since I'm not going to
be able to do anything else till I figure this out now..., if one of
the dates is a leap year the 365.25 works fine, which make me wonder
how the strtotime() function is working... or maybe that's what it's
supposed to do... ;)
