Did you ever post this link? If so, I've missed it.

It contains notes from that book that you think is so secret and informative (which has been available for over 100 years and is now in cheap paperback reprint form from Kessinger Publishing) I wish it was the whole book but alas, it's just part.
Is it really so hard for you to understand that what your posting isn't secret? McClenachan's book is considered a "Monitor" (which in Masonry is the exoteric --that means NON-Secret portions of the ritual) Why do you find it so interesting? There are TONS of new books out there that deal w/ the symbolism of the CURRENT rituals. Try "A Bridge to Light" by Rex Hutchens. It's replaced Morals & Dogma which is no longer being printed by the Supreme Council (yes, you can get a cheap paperback photo-copy from Kessinger)
Check out this link. Especially the one dealing w/ ritual. You (yes YOU) can buy "Forms & Traditions of the Scottish Rite) It includes several Scottish Rite Ceremonies, including Opening & Closing ceremonies of the four Scottish Rite bodies. You (yes YOU) can buy A Bridge to Light, or Heredom (the publication of the Scottish Rite Research Society which includes several old rituals...some even older than the one you keep quoting from) (By the way if you buy Heredom, be sure to check out Volume 11. One of my articles is in it and includes a ritual from the Ancient Toltec Rite a little known Masonic group) Sorry for the shameless plug but I'm on a roll.

Perhaps you should look here:

There's a synopsis of the various degrees of the Scottish Rite (the current ones...not from (ahem) "the book"
Echoing what ML said, what's the BIG deal?
I think I'll hook-up with Mirthful Me and we'll vandalize your toilet!
BWAHAHAHA
