Default Manual Tranny hemorrhaging Dot-3 Fluid...

I've got a 1993 Honda Del Sol S that recently when I went to shift from 4th to 5th gear (getting on the interstate) the clutch dropped to the floor and I couldn't shift. Pulled off to the side of the road, checked the reservoir and it was empty. When I refilled it, and went to burp it, the DOT-3 just started dripping steadily dripping out of the tranny... Time for a new clutch?

make sure its not coming from the slave cylinder. $12 versus $200
