HOOOOOOOOOOOORAYYYYYYYYYYY!!!!
I've got the clutch unstuck!! Yeah, I'm excited.

I ended up pulling the bellhousing bottom cover off and while pushing the clutch in, I tapped the clutch plate with a wooden block. I was amazed how light a tap it took, given the other major (I thought) jolting I had put it through. Thanks ALL for your help. And I'll keep you posted on my progress.
