dan better be careful. The Mason's guard their secrets jealously.

 

[Q]

Keep reading dan....use the potato hat as a disguise, if you have to.

 

[PT]

Well, if Dan quits posting all the sudden, we'll know why....

 

[dan]

haven't found anything about walking through walls...

this thing is really quite dull, most of it excrutiatingly dull legalese....

but i don't think otc'ers would make good masons:

BEHAVIOUR AFTER THE LODGE IS OVER, AND THE BRETHREN NOT GONE

You may enjoy yourself with innocent mirth, treating one another according to ability, but avoiding all excess, or forcing any brother to eat or drink beyond his inclination, or hindering him from going when his occasions call him, or doing or saying anything offensive, or that may forbid and easy and free conversation; for that would blast our harmony, and defeat our laudable purposes. Therefore no private piques or quarrels must be bought within the door of the lodge, far less any quarrels about religion, or nations, or state policy.

goes on saying stuff... seems politics is flat out banned from being discussed with masons. they figure the only way they're not going to get into trouble with governments and stuff is to never, ever make any political statements... there's many rules that say that sort of thing...

(edit, correct some spelling)
