Footnotes

Footnotes can be produced in one of two ways. They can be produced with one command, the `\footnote` command. They can also be produced with two commands, the `\footnotemark` and the `\footnotetext` commands. See the specific commands, below, for information on why you would use one rather than another.

- \footnote
- \footnotemark
- \footnotetext

- \footnotesize refers to a font size

Note that footnotes associated with "floated objects" like tables or figures may have a problem insofar as the footnote might not follow the floated object. This can be alleviated by putting the object inside a minipage environment.
