Options in taking it off. **** is horribly stripped.
I need productive answers, comments, and methods.

Sears makes a set of tools for removing stripped nuts, similar to the ezy-outs for stripped screws. They're like a socket, but with teeth. I've used them with good results...
Soak the nuts with Liquid Wrench, and let it soak for about 30 minutes before you attack them. WD-40 just isn't the same...
If there is nothing to grab onto you might as well use a cutting wheel or see if you can drill out the srew from the back side if possible. Pb blaster is the weapon of choice when you have something seized or rusted in place.
