Leap Year Day Mystery from Finn Badger arrived today

I got this envelope from Finn Badger today. Check out the clock, the spokes coming out from it might be the word "February" in a bajillion different languages!

Unfortunately it specifically states on the back not to open it until Leap Year Day. Luckily, he tells me what day this is on the back of the envelope, which in my impatience I Googled just to make sure. Unluckily, it's 10 whole days from now, so I'll have to wait. Sheer cruelty.

I will confess now that I have been holding it up to light bulbs, but I will reveal nothing that I conjecture about the possible contents.

Has this man from Fauxhio sent this mysterious mailing to more of us? How many are holding it up to light bulbs like I am? Shaking it reveals nothing...

My grandfather was born on Leap Day. Since he only got to celebrate his birthday every four years, he and I turned 18 during the same year!!!

Comment by Minneapolis Gnome on February 20, 2016 at 3:01am: AWESOME - it's so professional looking that I hoped other people would get to be in on the mystery too. Now that I know that I'm part of a special group, I think we should all conjecture together. Thank you FinnBadger!

I thought way more people would join in for a special Leap Year's Day (Feb 29) mailing by the Clock Lovers group, and had a lot of extras, so yes, there are more out there.
