Difference between Acetone Enolate and Acetone Radicals

I understand the concept behind Acetone enolate, but I'm a bit hazy on the term 'acetone radical'. could someone clarify for me whether or not there is a difference between the two?

The difference is in that the first is an anion, while the second is a radical.

…there is a human touch of the cultist “believer” in every theorist that he must struggle against as being unworthy of the scientist. Some of the greatest men of science have publicly repudiated a theory which earlier they hotly defended. In this lies their scientific temper, not in the scientific defense of the theory. - Weston La Barre (Ghost Dance, 1972)
