I've seen this a lot lately. The default for a radio button group is
that one button is ALWAYS selected - even when the page loads.
Otherwise you are circumventing the way radio groups work.

The point is to allow 1, and only 1 selection. You are supposed to
provide a "default" selection, the user changes it if they wish.

The upside of this, is of course - you don't have to validate
anything.
