You can ssh or telnet to sdf.lonestar.org or tty.freeshell.org and you can also create a free account at the ATutor website
http://webmail.freeshell.org/at It's free and very laid back, so even if you can't make the sessions you can go on the forums. You can join and leave whenever you want, but they are starting tomorrow at 9pm.
I've been spending a lot of time on the SDF chat under the name tatabox if you want to find me there.
After you ssh or telnet, type com and then g -> roof
