Talk:Cosmos Club

doesn't anyone know anything good on the cosmos club!? I mean, who are the current members, how much does it cost, what GOES ON there, how does one get membership???
 * It's a pretty standard social club. Members go there for business lunches and the like, they have a great Sunday brunch, and they host an occasional lecture series. The membership criteria are like those at other similar clubs (in Washington: the Metropolitan Club, the University Club) as in you have to be nominated by two members, and approved by the membership committee. In theory, the Cosmos Club focuses on writers, educators, intellectuals and scientists, rather than businessmen and strictly political figures, but I don't think that's still so much the case.
 * It's still the case, not specifically but it works out that way. When my mother was alive I was another of the people who'd stop by the bar on my way home from work and wind up eating there because the conversation was so good. There were regulars, people who came in because they were staying at the club, people who were there once a month, but I don't remember any who were there because they were in business. Often you didn't even know that they were. Kovar (talk) 00:50, 31 October 2015 (UTC)

Reciprocal clubs
There are now two sections on reciprocal club. One is in paragraph style with a citation. The other is a list without sources. The two are not the same. The list is a recent addition--I put it in alphabetical order and added links, but I am not convinced it is needed as Wikipedia is not meant to duplicate every item on an organizations website. If the source could be found, it might be worth adding country names or city names to the paragraph section. Thoughts? Rublamb (talk) 04:04, 31 August 2022 (UTC)
