Default Starting problems - Clutch Switch?

Sometimes lately my car will not start at all. It won't even turn over. I release the clutch, push it back in and it usually starts. Today it took a few times of messing with the clutch before it would crank but fired right up like normal. Is there a switch that tells the ECU when the clutch is in? Would this make sense? What signs would the car show if the starter was going bad? It makes no noise, just sits there.

The car is a 93 Civic EX. Bone stock engine.

the switch is on the clutch pedal assembly, stick your head underneath the dash and you'll see it.
