Anything between /* and */ is one comment, and thus ignored by the
interpreter (in this case, the browser). Lines starting with * are also
indicative of comments, though I don't think they actually serve a
purpose other than to make it obvious to you, the reader, that you're
looking at stuff between a /* and an */. You could easily get rid of
all those *s that are alone (without a slash), and you'd still have the
same behavior: everything in the file is commented out.

I hope that helps.
