Is there a six-letter word? (Posted on 2005-05-03)

Make the longest word you can make out of these six letters:
A, E, I, N, S, T.

Rules:

No letter may be used twice.
No other letter or symbol may be used.
It must be a common English word.
No proper nouns.

One good word is 'assassinates', but 'intensenesses' is one letter longer, at thirteen letters. However, if 'intensenesses' is too uncommon for you, you'll just have to settle for 'assassinates'.
