True, and then they put the outside box inside the inside box, just 
to be sure.

You have to fish for them...

Never swear on a shark.  That´s my motto.

Well, it's my Yahoo name, but you don´t need to credit me.  It would 
make more sense to cite the sources I used: Simek´s "Dictionary of 
Northern Mythology", and the Old Icelandic dictionaries of Fritzner 
[ http://www.dok.hf.uio.no/perl/search/search.cgi?
appid=86&tabid=1275 ], and Cleasby & Vigfusson [

Good luck with your research,
