The Lost Symbol – Breaking the Code
Following our post, below, about Freemasons trying to anticipate what might be in Dan Brown’s latest novel we were rather ‘caught on the hop’ because the day after that post a major article appeared in The Scotsman newspaper entitled The Lost Symbol – Breaking the Code. To make matters worse the publication of said article did not reach us until recently. Sad to say US sources reported on the article almost as soon as it was published. We are a bit abashed by that and now there are Post-It notes on our screens – check the press more often!
The first blogger, so far as we know, to pick up on the story was Brother Chris Hodapp, author of Freemasonry For Dummies, on his blogspot: http://freemasonsfordummies.blogspot.com/
His comments regarding The Scotsman article are interesting as are the comments it generated. The article is rather long and is not reproduced in full anywhere except on The Scotsman’s own web site. There are a few interesting comments following the article which is entitled Breaking the Code.

We hope to create a page devoted entirely to The Lost Symbol and the recent speculation as to the plot line, who might be the heros and villians, what part Freemasonry might play and what is the ‘secret’ (there is always at least one in Brown’s novels!)
More (hopefully!) to follow…
