At least the triple square heads are easy to drill out!  Removing my old
head from my dud block the twelfth bolt was the one that decided to yield to
the tool without turning.  OK, I probably didn't clean it well but this was
just a quick "save the head, junk the block" move.  It was a lot easier than
drilling out a hex head bolt.
