Me too! Strangers are usually very reluctant to believe we're twins 
because we look absolutely nothing alike.

When I was was in the fifth grade, there were two classes, which 
totalled about sixty students in the year. There were *three* sets of 
identical twins in the year. One twin from one set was called Julian, 
and another twin from another of the sets was called Tina. I don't 
remember the others' names.

In my year 12 class there were at least three sets of fraternal twins 
I can think of, including my sister and me.
