University of North Dakota has a chamber and does training with it.

I want to take high altitude training. However when I tried to sign up, the FAA 
said the Air Force cancelled its altitude chamber agreement and that training is 
no longer available.  Does anybody know differently? They have a psych class 
taught in Oklahoma City once a month and nothing else.

Results may vary but you can take training in an altitude chamber and see how 
you would fare. I agree you need a good hard mask with a built in mic. Mountain 
High sells such a mask. I know others on this list have had rapid decomps at 
flight levels and may have different experiences. Ralf had one in his IVP last 
year.
