    If you are skilled enough at driving stick, you can shift without using the clutch all together. I knew someone who had a 350Z and he only clutched to start up in 1st, otherwise he drove without pressing the clutch... pretty impressive!
    I do that every day. Big trucks don't have a syncronizer in their transmission so I have to do the work of the syncronizer and match engine rpms up to road speed. Its simple enough to do. Its sweet to be able to drive down the road and only have to use the gas to shift. I feel more in "tune" with the transmission. Like I'm one with the truck.

    on a normal slow driving day i clutch into first and sometimes 1st to 2nd if i'm feel like taking it past 3000 rpms, but other than that i float it into all the other gears... its just timing the spin of the flywheel and pulling it out and popping it in at the right RPMs... took me about 2 months of off and on practice on my old car to figure it out...
    Yup, all it takes is practice and hitting it at the rite rpm's. I also, (like newbie) drive big trucks, and believe me, its a lot more fun floating the gears. Plus, I like to let my left leg relax when im driving
