stripped bolt won't come out

I'm sure I'm not the first to have this problem. Even using heat to remove bolts from the control arm, I stripped that sucker, and it won't come out or tighten back in. The other bolt came out, and it was stripped in the middle. There are intact threads on the bottom and top of the bolt. Someone please give me an idea to get this piece of crap out that doesn't involve melting it our and re-tapping the hole.
