I need to provide footnotes to a few entries of a table.  If I put
\protect\footnotetext{num}{text} inside of the \begin{table}..\end{table}
pair, then {text} won't even show up.  If I place \protect\footnotetext 
outside of the table pair, {text} shows up at the the bottom of a page,
but not necessarily the same page as the table.  I can't use minipage
because of style constraints (not imposed by me), so I am stuck for now.

Either I have footnote at the *wrong* place or no footnotes at all :(
I would appreciate a hint about floating footnotes for table entries together
with the table.

Thanks in advance for any help.  Please email.  Summary promised.
