Ron gets his second no-prize of the day for bringing us this discussion of a new cognitive model for intelligence and interpersonal relationships. I think. When I got to the second paragraph my head exploded, so I'm not completely sure I even got the gist. People in school taking psych courses (you know how you are) may have an easier time of it.
Not only would that person taking psych classes have an easier time of it, but that person might also have just finished the book a couple weeks ago. In addition, said person might also have had the opportunity to listen to Goleman give a presentation and get the book signed.

-emotionally good types
-socially good types
-analytically/logically good types
I get the feeling most of us fall into the last.
Or did I over-simplify things?
