Tenets, tenets--of course, tenets.  Not paying boarders, but 
institutions of belief.  You realize, it's 4:06 a.m. here in lovely 
suburban Washington, D.C., and I've been at school all day, forgetting 
the difference between tenets and tenants.  My god, they're not even 
homonyms...

I'll put on my hairshirt first thing tomorrow afternoon, I promise.  For 
now, and once again, goodnight.
