Something about being radical

Radical as an English word is not necessarily a good word, especially when it's described to a person. Who are the type of the people we can call radical? Before going forward, Am I a radical person? I feel smart but I am not sure, I feel handsome however nobody else agrees, I want to change this and that only to find it's less than one nano-string if you were to describe our universe as what string theory tells. What about bloggers? Why people blog? I guess bloggers all have big self-ego however it's not yet accepted as beneficial to the society or our universe in all. In turn, we (yes, including new blogger like me) turns to something virtual, something we are not sure, notice the common ground here between this web blog and bloggers, they are all not sure about something, or they are uncertainties. Bloggers imagine web blog with a huge audience, there are countless sexy girls, phds, musicians, bosses etc..or cool people, only to ignore that such people are too busy to blog. So bloggers talk to bloggers, not the real radicals. There are two instances that big figures are talking about Radicals. One professor at Stanford Business school simply open mail to all young alumnis about theory of "Tempered Radicals", or people who want to succeed in their
organizations yet want to live by their values. They want to rock the boat, but they want to stay in it. Let's look at another radicals, called "Pragmatic Radicals", this time we are talking about Michael Dell, who apparently live his life most of time in tie and suit, but his mind is exactly what this word described: radical, but pragmatic.
