[color="#8B0000"][font="Palatino Linotype"]More and more I'm hearing the word activity or a degree of it being thrown around in MD. "There's no activity", "That person is very active", "They aren't active" and things like that. I'm noticing what seems to be active to one person isn't to another.
According to dictionary.com:
Active: 1.engaged in action; characterized by energetic work, participation, etc.; busy:
2. being in a state of existence, progress, or motion:
3. involving physical effort and action:
5. characterized by action, motion, volume, use, participation, etc
6. causing activity or change; capable of exerting influence
7. effective
There are many other listings, and I did skip one (dealt with being nimble). Looking at these definitions, do they line up with your definition of active?
