No worries. I went with "Free Radicals" for Berkeley for two main reasons: 1) the scientific reference because of the university and 2) the reputation of both the university and the community for quirky, leftist, political activity. Besides, I went to Cal and wanted Berkeley to have a cool name. Heck, I spent longer on their logo than on anyone else's. If people are interested in seeing it, I'll try to post it tonight.
