Haha damn...he's right. You may certainly end up breaking it before it twists off again...I remember one thread where the guys metal **** fused to the shifter. It ended breaking before he could twist it off...May be the same case for you...except locktite instead of metals fusing.

Try clamping a set of vice grips on it and see if you can bust it loose. If not I am gonna agree with the chainsaw idea
