Hi Gary. I agree with Mayrie that this is indeed a real problem. In my opinion, 
we should all worry about computer programs that decide what we should see in a 
book.

Do you still have your original file? That might be helpful if the book is 
resubmitted as a BSO book.

  Hi Gary,

      You might first contact the proofreader and ask if he/she perhaps removed 
them, not understanding their purpose?  If that is the case, you can resubmit 
as a BSO and request a proofreader who is familiar with dealing with footnotes. 
 If the footnote numbers weren't removed by the proofreader, I don't have any 
guesses.  That is odd indeed.  Once you know whether it is a proofreading 
issue, then maybe we can all put our heads together on why the numbers might 
have been removed by the tools, if indeed that is what removed them.

      This is a definite problem, and needs to have all of its possible causes 
examined to decide what  to do about it.

  Good luck!

  Mayrie

  I submitted Unstoppable Global Warming Every 1500 Years by S. Fred Singer and 
Dennis T. Avery a while back and it got approved not too far back in the past.  
I've just taken a look at it and it seems that the footnote numbers were either 
stripped or erased.  To say the least, I'm upset.  I would appreciate 
suggestions as to what to do about this.
  Thanks.
