Monzacoupe,
What is your end goal? What are trying to accomplish getting it out?
Do you have it out of the spline yet at the lower end near the steering box?
I would think you'd have to do that 1st, because I doubt very much you'd have the throw to get out of the fire enough.
If lower is already out, I'm with Dick, some pen oil 1st.
Then, by placing a wooden block the right size against the firewall, with a long beefy screwdriver or pry bar, you'd be able to get the leverage to pry it away.
If it's still stuck, a few light taps with a rubber mallet towards the firewall might do the trick just to break it loose, not too far though.
