Default Clutch question...

Hi there!

I went to start my '96 LT4 yesterday and the clutch pedal went to the floor! No pressure at at all??? Drove the car about a month ago and all was good. A few months ago, I noticed the pedal was getting a little soft and I checked the fluid. It was low. I topped it off and all was good. The clutch felt great! All of a sudden... The reservoir was low yesterday and I added some fluid but, the pedal has no pressure???

Any help? What's this about?

It is leaking out somewhere, find it. Fluid does not just disappear.
