Solecism? Or SOTA?

[Jonathan Lighter]

Overheard yesterday on an airliner. The primary
speaker was an African-American woman, about 40, who
was flying to L.A.:

"Oh, I have sextuplets.  Three boys and three girls."

"Sextuplets? My, oh my! They were all born at once?"

"Oh, no!  They were born at different times! But there
are six of them!"
