[OS X TeX] footnote with asterisk

[Kentaro Nakatani]

Dear Herb,

Oh, I should've redefined \thefootnote command...silly me!
It worked perfectly well (except that I would re-redefine
\thefootnote back into \arabic rathar than into \roman :-).

I thank you very much, Herb, for your amazingly quick
and useful reply.

Best,
-KenN
