I may have fixed it albeit temporarily. See corner's thread about this same subject where I posted a picture of my brake fluid tester that shows the amount of water in brake fluid.
After I got home I tested the clutch fluid; it's in a separate reservoir from the brake fluid. It had > 4% water in it. I iteratively emptied the reservoir, refilled it, pumped the clutch 40 times, and tested the fluid in the reservoir for water. Each time it had 1-2% water in it.
It took 7-8 fills and purges before 0% water showed up on the meter.

Did you pump the clutch 40 times for the first fill, meaning 40x7-8 fills = 280-320 times to pump the clutch in order to achieve a 0% reading on the apparatus?
2nd question would be, how many track sessions, and what length of them, would it take for water to begin contaminating the Dot 4 fluid in your separate clutch reservoir again?
I really do find all of this disconcerting, perhaps I'm over thinking it or being too paranoid.
I don't even want to go to my local track in the next few weeks anymore because of all of this.
