Dave,
As long as the clutch is fully disengaged, it will not cause any wear on
your clutch.

Ok, I just got my clutch done, replaced everything. I want to make sure it
lasts as long as possible. A friend of mine told me that you shouldn't keep
your foot on the clutch when at a stop light, that you should take it out of
gear until you're ready to roll again. Any truth to this? I've been
driving nothing but sticks since I was 15, never heard this. Just curious.
Thanks.
