Does Prokosch actually give Proto-Germanic paradigms? I've looked at
it several times, and all I could find was comparisons of the
descendant forms without reconstructions.

Hmm, ironic. Good thing I'm somewhat competent at reading German

I suggest you subscribe to Germaniconlang. There is some stuff
in its filesection.
<http://groups.yahoo.com/group/germaniconlang/>
I'll do that. Thanks.

No, I'm Canadian. I don't know exactly why it's sticking Norwegian ads
at the bottom of my email... it must have something to do with the fact
that at one point I switched my language to Norwegian because I heard
that it then doesn't stick any ads at the bottom of your emails at all.
It worked, at least when I first tried it, and I didn't check since.
But the odd thing is, two days ago or so I changed my language back to
(Canadian) English, and now it seems to add Norwegian ads. So I'm not
sure what's going on. It still also does a few other things in
Norwegian, but the main interface is in English.
