We could try it with a couple of scientologists first and see what happens...

The masons are a very open secret society - you can take tours of the grand lodge in London and find out how to go about joining (no guarantee you will succeed, mind, but...). The lot I used to work with had at least one meeting in one of the meeting rooms at work (admittedly I only found out about it because I refused to pay any attention to the "Kitchen closed" sign (well, I wanted a tea, and I wasn't going to walk over to the other side of the building(s) to get one) on the kitchen next to the room, and had a nose around...)
I'd be very surprised if they didn't have ways of identifying themselves to each other, though - it's very much (seen as) an "old boys network" in the UK, and it's a bit pointless if you don't know the other old boys
(Of course, this innocuous-ish public front could be covering something more sinister, but I'll stop there before I start to sound like a Dan Brown novel
)

Oh no! I hope that gets fixed soon.
