A special word (Posted on 2003-01-14)

There is something special about the English word "facetiously".

Can you tell what it is?

Can you find any other words with this special property?

The word contains all five vowels in alphabetical order.
fAcEtIOUsly.
The closest to another word with this property I could think of was tEdIOUs, which doesn't have the A in.
