I guess I would prefer that when in the field common sense ruled, but in the rear intelligence took over. I think I would do a better job of covering my buddies' butts in the field if I used commn sense.

I suppose, sir, they are asking about "book smarts". You know, where someone knows all sorts of irrelevant information, but can't figure out how to change a light bulb. My head is full of that kind of stuff, but mechanically I'm pretty hopeless. Not, of course, because I couldn't figure it out, but because I prefer not to. I like to think I have some degree of common sense, too.

A1C Lisa Casserly - The braniacs at the University of Smarter than Me, have come up with 9 types of intelligence. The verbiage used varies but they're pretty much the same in meaning.
1. Naturalist Intelligence (“Nature Smart”)
2. Musical Intelligence (“Musical Smart”)
3. Logical-Mathematical Intelligence (Number/Reasoning Smart)
4. Existential Intelligence (Capacity to tackle deep questions about human existence)
5. Interpersonal Intelligence (People Smart”)
6. Bodily-Kinesthetic Intelligence (“Body Smart”)
7. Linguistic Intelligence (Word Smart)
8. Intra-personal Intelligence (Self Smart”)
9. Spatial Intelligence (“Picture Smart”)
Currently I wish I was more financially intelligent but apparently that's not an option.
