Do you know of any good websites to learn some basics in sign language?

Question

I am interested in learning sign language. Do you know of any good websites to learn from? Do you know of any place where I can take a sign language class?

I live about 50 miles south of Pittsburgh. I don't know of any deaf schools in the area and I'm not sure if any of the local colleges/universities offer a sign language class.

As for the classes to take sign language, you would need to place an area nearby so we know where to direct you! :-)

Good luck and keep at it! :-)
