radical?

So, in the little description in the sidebar, I labeled the future writers of this blog as "a few radicals in rhet comp." But I have my reservations for radical as a description of what I think I do, and I'm wondering what your reactions are to the term or if you use it to describe yourself or not (right now this question is out to Tim and A.J., but also to anyone else who joins--a few more invitations have been sent out and I'm waiting for a return).
