“WHAT THE HELL IS THAT?” - That’s my point! What is this wierd symbol!

It’s a footnote double dagger. :)
It’s a reference labeller.
Or in english terms...
Double Dagger Directs the reader to a footnote labeled with the same symbol

OMG! how did you know that? :)

I knew what it was called from college... but didn’t know the use of it... all I knew it was for reference points... so I put that in google. :D

Pin the medal on Denny! One labelled with that double dagger footntey thing. And give her a year’s supply of dress shields. And a box of cookies. (Use both wisely, my friend, and don’t mix them up.)
