Re: I assume you're aware that . . .

Um I saw a documentary on Octuplets. I'm pretty sure they were real. I don't think those were the names, but I know there were octuplets on t.v.

There have been plenty of octuplets, but I've never heard of an entire set surviving birth. Most of the time the majority or all of the babies are so small that they are stillborn or die shortly after birth. Certainly there were *not* a set of all-girl octuplets born in the mid-1980s who all survived and had normal enough health to be all in a gymnastics team together! :-)
