Introduction

Satori-5 webmaster Gordon D McHendry on a rare good day in 2000...

Credit Where Credit is Due
This Credits webpage is the technical companion to its more personal counter-part the "Thank You's" webpage. I am a firm believer in giving full credit whenever and whereever credit is due. So, basically, what this means in action here is that if any person, website, or product contributes in some 'technical' way or another to the evolution of Satori-5 then full credit will be freely given on this webpage just as soon as difficult health circumstances permit it.

Walking The Walk
It is a healthy and humbling exercise to seek to fully appreciate the extent to which we are indebted, in all sorts of ways, to the fruits of other peoples labours - great and small. What follows below is simply my attempt to walk that particular talk with regard to Satori-5.

The Spirit in me honours the Spirit in you

The Spirit in me honours the Spirit in you

Namaste

Yours Sincerely

Gordon D McHendry

Life Energy Systems Inc
&
Narva Tronic
A Satori-5 Thumbs-Up

The Full Spectrum Biolight Bulbs from these two companies are outstanding products. They have quite literally saved my computing life. In the past looking at a computer monitor for more that 20/30 minutes would make me very ill; not now. I bought just two of these little wonders and put them either side of my computer monitor and now - no more bad brain problems at all within that ridiculously short time, and I can now considerably beyond those narrow margins too.

Presently looking for a reliable supplier who doesn't charge a ridiculous £10 for postage [as most seem to do]. Think I may have found one - but have to check with them first. If it pans out I will put full contact details here for anyone who may be interested.

Update: See the Reviews Webpage for a reliable UK supplier.

IDG Books

A Satori-5 Thumbs-Up

For their "Teach Yourself HTML Visually". Again an outstanding product. Pre ME/MCS/HRS I used to be an avid reader. Nowadays, after 20/30 minutes of reading [often even much less] my brain disintegrates due to the damage inflicted on it by those illnesses. This book helps me no end to cope with that problem while working on Satori-5.

Having no memory at all worth speaking of these days this book was invaluable as a quick reminder and teacher. It is fully illustrated with nice big idiot-proof pictures throughout - which was just as well in my case as I am now a borderline moron. Highly recommended.

"Environmental Awareness and Multiple Chemical Sensitivity Emblems"




     "Custom-made emblems to represent Multiple Chemical Sensitivity (MCS) are available. One design has a Mask and the other has a Ribbon. These emblems signify our environment and the pollutants we breathe in our daily lives. Gas, smoke, perfumes, and other odors in our society are making the chemically-sensitive physically sick. The water we drink, the food we eat, and sick building syndrome are concerns in our environment. My custom designed emblems bring Environmental Awareness to these issues. The Emblems have a heat-sealed backing which can be either ironed or sewed on. Choose your own logo and words with the earth emblem."

This special credit is given to the "The National M.E. Centre" website for kindly hosting a link to Satori-5. This is just my way of saying "Thank You" for supporting Satori-5 in that highly valued way.
"ME, or Chronic Post Viral Fatigue Syndrome, is primarily a brain disorder which typically occurs in a vulnerable individual, often at a time of stress, as a consequence of a viral or recurrent viral infection. Clinically it is a fluctuating disorder of energy control (fatigue). Symptoms commonly include prolonged recovery from any activity, muscle pain, sleep disturbances, disturbances of memory and concentration, irritable bowel, abnormal temperature control, emotional lability and mood fluctuations. The consensus view is that the average duration of the illness is four years and up to twenty percent of sufferers fail to return to previous levels of functioning. The severity of this disorder varies, though some patients are disabled for years."

      "We, the people with CFS/CFIDS, must finally take a stand to help ourselves! Too many people, including doctors have too many ideas about the cause(s), treatments, and cure(s); so, we, who have CFS, MUST share our histories, treatments, and our own ideas about this READED DISEASE. We would also like the doctors and medical personnel who believe in and treat CFS to stand with us and give us their ideas, etc. We can take a major step forward if everyone will help us to fully develop this website with their information."

      This website is yet another example of ME/CFS sufferers with little or no computer and/or Internet experience struggling bravely against the odds and doing their best under very difficult circumstances to try and help themselves and other ME/CFS sufferers. They have my utmost respect. It is because of people like this, in all walks of life, and in many different countries, all fighting back in their own way, despite huge difficulties, against the ignorance, apathy and corruption surrounding this illness, with the help of a small but growing band of medical and health professionals, that the tide is at last turning.

CFIDS Report

     This special credit is given to the "CFIDS Report" website for kindly hosting a link to Satori-5. This is just my way of saying "Thank You" for supporting Satori-5 in that highly valued way.

      "Today, there is widespread agreement among both patients and researchers that the name 'Chronic Fatigue Syndrome', and the 1994 research definition, is inadequate. However, it has been more difficult to reach a consensus on a suitable replacement. Many in the CFS community feel that the name “Chronic Fatigue Syndrome” severely trivializes, broadens, and leads to a misunderstanding of the illness. This view led to an eventual merging the phrase ”Immune Dysfunction” into the name, thus the frequently utilized term, CFIDS. The strong tendency of the illness to begin with a virus has also no doubt led to the popularity of the term CFIDS."

      "Until the CDC has the courage to reform the CFS case definition, it is fair to suggest that the CDC’s lengthy and complex definition for CFS should be taken with a grain of salt and a much simpler version will suffice."

      "We have lived in isolation from the community and family for six years, because there are chemicals and chemically perfumed products everywhere. I still live in hope we will one day be able to live on acreage so James can have more freedom without risk, as neighbours where we live in these densely populated areas are a constant source of exposures to toxic chemicals. If these policies were implemented in our schools, my son would not have been denied an education."

      "We are so concerned about James. He was so ill mentally and physically in schools we had no choice but to take him out at 10 years of age due to all the chemicals in schools none the least being the astrononomical use of perfumes by staff, teachers, pupils and all the parents. Read his story Pesticide/Herbicide exposure as an infant and in school causes chemical sensitivity."

      "James can't read very well and can barely write. My husband and I are in our fifties. What do we do with James? He has been detoxifying and avoiding chemicals (as much as possible in this polluted society by staying at home for six years - just recently has had some brief outings). He has been asking for about the last year to go to school - where? He needs education and socialisations - where? The School of Today Rockhampton is a chemical free school and no perfumes - but no one has followed their lead. My fear grows each day for his future - the six years of isolation which meant avoidance of all the chemicals in society that made him so ill, detoxification programmes and homeopathic treatments and nutrient thereapy etc., have helped him to improve substantially, but he will have to remain very careful indeed"

      "My son is now almost 16 years of age and has been detoxifying his chemically poisoned brain and body for 6 years - but society, family, friends, no-one wanted to know or help us, as their chemicals and chemically perfumed products were too important to them - sadly, we mattered to no-one"

      "Our estimate that 10 % of the population already are elektrosensible seems to be corrected by swiss and austrian sources. They mention of 20-30 %."

      "Why the name*Milieuziektes* or Environmental Illnesses? Because a lot of illness phenomena find their origin in environmental circumstances. Count to that, that healing of existing *normal* illnesses are disadvantageous influenced by these environmental circumstances. For example, somebody with cancer, when under the influence of pulsed high frequency radiation (f.i. mobile phones, phone masts and DECT phones), will have the greatest difficulty in order to let the healing process proceed succesfully. For that reason homeopatic drugs are less effective under such loaded living surroundings."

Too many end up homeless and living out of their vehicles in some remote area. Some victims have been tragically murdered while other victims have tragically taken their own life. Many like our beloved Cindy Duehring have lost their life to complications from the illness after severe pesticide poisoning."

      "James McConaghie is an honors research student in environmental studies at Oberlin. He suffers from "multiple chemical sensitivity" disorder—James gets sick if exposed to certain synthetic compounds found typically in new carpets, paints, and adhesives. For health reasons, his classes in several buildings must be videotaped; he watches them elsewhere to avoid breaking out in hives."

"ME has been around for centuries, and has had many names, including:"
* Neurasthenia (1800s)
* Post-Viral Fatigue Syndrome (PVFS), and
* Royal Free Disease (a major outbreak in London’s Royal Free Hospital 1955).
      "ME used to occur in mini-epidemics, but since 1956 it is more usually seen in isolated cases, sometimes ‘clusters’ in schools or villages."

      "At present there is no cure for ME, and no specific diagnostic test. Diagnosis is made from recognising the main symptoms, and the ruling out of other illnesses."

      "ME probably affects about 2 per thousand people in the UK, and affects all social, ethnic and economic groups. The onset is commonest between ages 20 to 40, and women are more affected than men. However ME is increasingly recognised in children, with the peak onset in young people around puberty."

      "ME can vary in severity, the worst affected may become unable to walk, even too weak to eat. The less severely affected may be able to attend school or hold down a job, but only if they avoid sports and rest a lot"

      "Multiple Chemical Sensitivity, (MCS), also called environmental illness, is a medical condition in which individuals develop symptoms from very low levels of chemicals in the environment, levels which they previously tolerated and which most people don't even notice. MCS usually results from exposure to toxic chemicals, either in a single massive dose or long term exposures to low doses."

      "MCS is a widespread, growing public health problem. Nationwide, it is estimated that 15% of the population has become sensitized to one or more common household chemicals or commercial products. Preliminary results of a 1995 California Dept. of Health Services study found 16% of the study population were chemically sensitive and 7% had been diagnosed with MCS. That's approximately 2 million cases in California alone. Another study, using a telephone survey, found that 3.9% of respondents had symptoms of MCS that occurred daily."

      "Sheffield Yoga for ME/CFS is an independent voluntary organisation and was established in 2001 for the purpose of organising specialist remedial yoga lessons for people with ME or CFS in Sheffield."

      "All the committee members have ME and experience of yoga themselves except for the treasurer who is an experienced accountant. One member was a nurse and health visitor, another was a nurse, another has a degree in a biomedical science and one has a master's degree in disability studies. There are close links with both the Heeley ME Support Group and the Sheffield ME Support Group both of which are very supportive."

      "It had been clear for several years that there was a demand for yoga classes; for example, members of the Heeley ME Support Group had regularly requested yoga on their programme. Many people with ME have found yoga a tremendous help in managing the illness and coping with symptoms, although most people with ME are too ill to attend normal yoga classes. In remedial yoga, postures are adapted so they are appropriate for a particular group. In the case of ME, for example, many postures which would normally be done standing (such as "The Tree"), are carried out while lying down."

      "It had proved difficult to find a teacher willing and able to take a specialist class for people with ME or CFS in Sheffield until Autumn 2000 when contact was made with Linda Sue Arnold, formerly Linda Sole, an experienced remedial yoga teacher who trained at the Yoga for Health Foundation. A trial session with Linda, run by the Heeley ME Group, was such a success that it was agreed to organise classes on a more permanent basis."

"Enzyme Depletion"
      "Detoxification of all manner of naturally occurring toxins is carried out in humans by enzymes in the liver. These same enzymes are also used to detoxify a wide range of synthetic chemicals, but, if the enzymes are depleted or damaged by health problems, then they are unable to metabolize these toxicants efficiently, so leading to the problems associated with Multiple Chemical Sensitivity."

      "Enzyme depletion is used to great effect with some types of pesticide, where the action of the primary poison is augmented by the use of an enzyme blocker so that the poison cannot be metabolized properly, remains in the body of the organism longer, and so is much more highly toxic than it would otherwise be."

      "Many types of enzyme deficiency can be inherited & this may lead one to suppose that Multiple Chemical Sensitivity may affect other members of the same family and, in fact, there is some (fairly tentative) evidence to support this view."

New Discoveries
      "Dr. Blount was bed-ridden, drug and alcohol-ridden, and no longer practicing medicine because of the scourges of Rheumatoid Arthritis. On reading Dr. Bingham's article, Dr. Blount tried to locate some of the recommended drugs -- especially Clotrimazole -- but no drug company would sell them to him in the United States at that time. Jack Blount, therefore, on reading through the chemical structure of many different drugs, discovered that Metronidazole was related to Wyburn-Mason's Clotrimazole, Ornidazole, Nimorazole and Tinidazole, a class of compounds called the 5-nitroimidazoles."

      "Dr. Blount got himself and some older patients well on using Metronidazole, and thereafter reopened his medical clinic, where he became known throughout the United States for treating and bringing great relief -- often permanent relief -- to more than 17,000 patients, including the Executive Director/Secretary of this Foundation."

TETRA at Shoreham Airport.
Gives many people a headache just standing under it.
Why?

TETRA: an illegal contract and unnecessary expense? Or just a white elephant?
"TETRA stands for TErrestrial Trunked RAdio. It is the new national police radio system, operated mainly by O2 under the brand name of Airwave. Planned since early 1990, the contract was given in March 2000 to BT and Motorola, without going to tender. Since that time, BT has split its business and the Airwave contract went to the section of the company that deals with mobile networks. This was initially called O2, then mmO2, and now back to O2. However, since the contract was awarded, the European Commission has found the British Government guilty of unlawfully limiting the contract to tender to TETRA systems only and in our opinion guaranteeing the contract to O2. The existing contract is unlawful as it contravenes European competition laws as defined in the treaty of Rome."

We're Engulfed in Pesticides
      "The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) began an ongoing study in 1999 in an effort to calculate the public's exposures to environmental contaminants, including mercury, tobacco smoke, and certain pesticides. By taking blood and urine samples, scientists can monitor the population's contact with chemicals present in the air, water, dust, food, and soil over time."

      "So far, the results of the initial CDC National Report on Human Exposure to Environmental Chemicals confirm what many people already suspected," says Susan Kegley, staff scientist at Pesticide Action Network North America (PANNA). "The general population has contaminant levels exceeding those set by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) as safe."

Pure Distilled Water Helps Transport Substances In My Body
      "As one of the greatest solvents known, water helps prepare substances for transport across cell membranes and for distribution through our bodies by way of blood and lymph. This function of water in our bodies is impaired when the water is filled with contaminants that interfere with its ability to dissolve bodily substances efficiently."
Pure Distilled Water Helps Cleanse My Body of Waste Materials
      "Within the body, water acting as a solvent, reaches into every cell to absorb and carry away the poisons that are formed as a part of the life process. Lots of pure water is needed for this task. We all know that it is easier to wash dishes in a sink full of clean water than in a cup full of dirty water. The blood circulates 400 gallons of water through the kidneys each day. Common sense tells us that when the water we consume is pure, it can do a much better job than when it is already contaminated with toxic substances."
