Well, I smashed and banged with a cold chisel for about forty minutes.
The damn thing just softly disfigured into a squished up mess and still
won't break off.  I think I buggered the threads a bit, since they're
showing on one little spot on the stud.  The endeavor came to a stop
when I started to feel the 17F wind chill outside (raining, too) and
smashed the hell out of my index finger (still hurts this morning).  :(

Any advice here?  What's the story with replacing the stud?
Thanks,
Chris
