As long time residents of this planet, Don Wimberly and Gae Pedersen...long time partners in life on this planet, have grown to the reality that what our parents and educational leaders told us and showed us was not necessarily the truth as we now perceive the truth!  Having settled down in the relatively calm surroundings of The Dalles, Oregon has shown us a new side of life not shown us in Los Angeles, California nor Portland, Oregon.  Having many close brushes with cancers of many types has introduced us to the many reasons this planet and the people on it need help in altering lifestyles that are not of any major value to healthy living here on earth.  We began our search of education which we felt necessary for our own wellness and good health...not an education dictated by political, religious and/or capitalistic reasons.  AND, our respective ages have also allowed us to let "experience be the best teacher".
