After my question about how best to secure handlebar grips, I'm tempted to say hairspray.
I wonder if someone put the wrong-sized seatpost on your bike at some point. I've had seatposts get stuck, but I don't think I'v had one slip. It doesn't seem you should have to tighten it until fear of damage begins to settle in.
