Brain Game: One to Ten in Six

Counting from one to ten is one thing... trying to get from the word ONE to the word TEN is another. By changing one letter at a time (and leaving the others in their original positions), I was able to form a "word bridge" to get from ONE to TEN in six steps. Can you do better? If so, post your response in the comments!

O N E _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ T E N

HERE is one solution.

ONE SOLUTION:

ONE > OWE > OWL > OIL > TIL > TIN > TEN
