That is comforting to know, but I see no reason to tempt fate
unnecessarily.  One easy way of dealing with spare inputs on N/AND,
N/OR gates is to tie them in parallel to another input.  As opposed to
pulling them high with a resistor to +5V.  Provided you stay within the
load capacity of the driving gate.

CMOS inputs should not be allowed to float, of course.
