They contain all five vowels plus the letter "Y". but so do "abstemiously" and "facetiously", and *they* have them in alphabetical order [img]smile.gif[/img]

[/QUOTE]"Dermatoglyphics" doesn't have a U...
[/QUOTE]Ya know, when I looked at this in the daylight, that "u" had run away on me somehow... [img]smile.gif[/img]

Oh Donut - I didn't know you cared
