I don't necessarily agree that there are several types of intelligence. Yes, some of us have a musical ear, and some of us are good at persuasion. IMO, these are all aptitudes derived from different peoples' ability to percieve, recollect and apply different sets of stimuli better than others.

So in the end it's a matter of semantics. You think there is only one intelligence but that it is better at applying itself to different stimuli in different people. To me this isn't really different than saying there are different intelligences.
