<em>The remaining intelligences have nothing to do with intelligence or cognitive skills per se, but rather represent personal interests (for example, musical represents an affinity for music...)</em>
This is total nonsense. The author has apparently never watched the early episodes of any reality TV show of the "looking for a star" variety -- there are plenty of examples where the interest is enormous, but affinity is nonexistent. Nor has he ever met someone with great talent for music but who couldn't bother learning the basics (and this comes from personal experience).
