	A MILITANT DILETTANTE IN JUDGMENT OF SCIENCE (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
		Hence, while both Johnson and myself are dilettantes in biology, I have at least a general expertise in scientific research, and thus in applying scientific logic to the problems to be discussed.
		Johnson’s attack on Berra displays the smugness of the dilettante which Johnson appears to be even in the area he claims to be his field of expertise – the analysis of the logic of arguments.
		Being apparently confident, as is usual for a dilettante, of having mastered the nuances of biological science, Johnson has the gall to accuse scientists of lies, maintaining that scientists deliberately conceal information that may reveal a weakness in their position.

		I long ago came to realize that I am a putterer, a grazer, a dilettante.
		I create the impression of getting a lot done by dabbling through my days: I read two pages of a book, write half a letter, paint a portion of the front porch, bake half a tin of muffins, teach a class, wash a window.
		If this is not bliss, what is? One could do worse than be a dilettante.

	Light, Six-Sided, Paradoxical Fight by Marco Frascari for the Nexus Network Journal vol.4 no.2 (Spring 2002) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
		To be truthful to its intention, the exact title of this present tale should be as idiosyncratic and lengthy as the Greek-Latin unfolding of the title marking the extraordinary rebus-opus conceived by Francesco Colonna: Hypnerotomachia Polifili ubi humana omnia non nisi somnium essa docet atque obiter plurima scitu sane quam digne commemorat [1499].
		However, the chosen quasi-short title, "A Light, Six-Sided, Paradoxical Fight", is sufficient to take aim at the forces that have shaped a system of critical thoughts on how to fight gravity with a happy architecture based on light structures combined with the dilettante's approaches to hexagonal design.
		Within an allegorical garden of hanging paradoxes, the labyrinthine path of this account begins with Italo Calvino's critical evaluation of lightness and a biased version of the myth of Perseus.
