25 cents says it's your clutch master cylinder, or maybe brake.  Whatever,
open up the lid and check your brake fluid level before you drive it any
more.  These things don't have a low-level warning for the brake fluid,
they wait until the pedal travel gets enormous to tell you (duh!) there's a
problem.

Oh yeah -- it's really coming from above and dripping down to where you're
seeing it.  Guess who has the same problem?  Guess who had a big shock when
he had the cover off the instrument panel to replace a light bulb back when
it was zero F. out...it dumped practically the whole reservoir while it was
just sitting there.  Now it's warmed up, time to go fix it...whee.
