Why The Name?

OK, finally found my way back here. Still have not the foggiest of how Blogger and Google+ works. I log in and get columns of snippets of goodness knows what from goodness knows who with no rhyme or reason to it all and no explanation as to what to do with it. I am sure there is an explanation somewhere but a big shiny "getting started" button might be nice, especially if it is connected to some good tutorials and a step by step setup guide that explains how it all fits together. I'll keep puttering around but not exactly what I would call an intuitive look and feel to the whole thing at the moment. OK that felt good. Moving on now ...

In case anybody is actually seeing this blog yet and may perchance be wondering about the name of it (Views From an Island Place) those who have visited my IslandBard YouTube Channel will know that I have been a victim of Multiple Chemical Sensitivity (MCS) since 1996. MCS isolates you from the modern world and restricts you to a few safe islands in a vast chemical "sea" of polluted places. If you want to know more about MCS type "Multiple Chemical Sensitivity" into your search engine. Skip all the old "it is all in your head" sites and check out some of the more recent research articles where doctors and scientists are discovering that it is a very real physical injury and disability.

In the meantime my videoed poem "An Island Place" will help add a little more insight.
