Does going into neutral wear down tranny?

I searched but have yet to find an answer. When driving, like most others on the site, I neutral when going down hills or to stop signs/lights. I haven't gotten the courage to turn the car off when it is in motion just yet, but I was wondering if going in and out of neutral while the vehicle is running has negative effects on the transmission.


On a side note: I have had the courage to turn the car off if I'm the first person stopped at a traffic light.
