This is exactly what Charles suggested - and this works, no doubt! But
because I did NOT know LyX being smart enough to interpret a footnote
directly after a title as \thanks, I just had to figure out a solution
of my own (why on earth would I have posted my question if I had known
the answer????).
A thanks has to placed _inside_ a title or author and _not_
outside. If you want something only appear in the footnote
without a footnotemark, then use \footnotetext[]{...}
