    Whats the longest word you can come up with that you can keep removing letters one at a time, but its always still a word? Example:

    THEATER
    HEATER
    HATER
    HATE
    ATE
    AT
    A

    How about a 9-letter one?

    STARTLING
    STARLING
    STARING
    STRING
    STING
    SING
    SIN
    IN
    I

    Incidentally, STARLINGS could also work the same way.
