Hi, Eric---

Don't know what TENTY means, so the answer had to be EVAS, the abbreviation.  I guess I knew EVAN Horowitz [don't ask me how] had quit the program and wrote it in before checking that all the answers made sense.  I really ought to check my work or hire an editor. 

I truly appreciate your taking the time to pick me up on my miscues.  And I apologize to the throngs who read my posts.
