Default Electronic "Brake" position

Good morning all. I'm finding it convenient to use the "brake" position on the transmission here in the Denver area BUT there are times that I forget to move the transmission back to the "D" position.
Am I doing any damage to anything by accelerating while still in the brake position? Thanks for your thoughts...

Sandy

nope... you are probably not helping efficiency on flat terrain though.
