Thanks a lot, guys. The first few things I found when searching the interwebz led me to believe that the thing was made of tin foil and any application of pressure would break it. Fear mongers! I've owned numerous (and probably most of my gear is comprised of) MSR products and I've never had the slightest problem so I didn't want to believe there was something wrong. Thanks a ton for your help, everyone.
To anyone who stumbles upon this thread with a similar problem: tighten that bad boy up!
