Logician? I am, apparently, known by words other than this one. I found it astonishing too. No, it isn't Logician. |

So does "3/32" refer to "Ed" in some way? |

So does "3/32" refer to "Ed" in some way? No, it relates to 'Mason' in another way... |

3/32: Degrees of rank in the Masonic Lodge? YES! That's basically it. So what is the exact term? |

Humm. I don't know what the rank titles are for the most part, but by the time you get to 32nd Degree, I think you're in the "Master" or "Grand Master" category. And I have no idea what the rank title for 3rd degree is, assuming that '3/32' means 'third of 32'. |

Apparently, if you are a 32nd Degree Mason, you are a 'Sublime Prince of the Royal Secret'. However, you said the right answer, however wrong the context was, and so I'll declare a ***** SPOILER ***** "Master Mason" was the term - the two definitions being: 1) A 3rd Degree Freemason 2) Myself, in that my surname is Mason, and I am under 18. |

Ah! "Master" as the traditional term of address for a minor male in a family--one who isn't yet a "Mister"? Sir (the father), Madam (the mother), Master Edward (the son) and Miss Emily (the daughter)? |
