Just to disspell a few of the ideas going around, that's exactly how my AT died. I tried changing the fluid, twice even. It worked fine for another three days, then back to the same thing.
My car had the heat exchanger in the lower rad hose. It didn't help anything.
I assume your car has around 150k on it, which is the service life of one of the automatics anyway. Drive it as is, hopefully you won't get into an accident, then sell it in the spring. I siezed the opportunity to change the car over to a five speed, which saved me around $800 in fuel costs alone last year, and the year before, and you can actually outaccelerate a Geo or something imposing like a Honda Insight.
