 Place a numbered footnote at the bottom of the current page, as here.
 
      Noe"l Coward quipped that having to read a footnote is like having
      to go downstairs to answer the door, while in the midst of making
      love.\footnote{I wouldn't know, I don't read footnotes.}
 
    You can place multiple footnotes on a page.  If the text becomes too
 long it will flow to the next page.
 
    You can also produce footnotes by combining the '\footnotemark' and
 the '\footnotetext' commands, which is useful in special circumstances.
 
    To make bibliographic references come out as footnotes you need to
 include a bibliographic style with that behavior.
