This are the "activity lights" -- they indicate irssi windows that
have activity in them. Bold (bright) indicates actual conversation.
Dim indicates that some other activity has occurred (join, part, quit,
etc)

In the standard configuration, sending a private message to someone
opens up a query window. If you want to find out the current windows,
you can move to your status window (/win 1) and enter (/win list)
which will list all the current windows.
