Carbon fiber seatpost, aluminum frame and a workstand...

I'm supposed to clamp onto the seatpost. Great! Problem solved (or
avoided, at least.) But wait - I have a carbon fiber seat post. Is
it OK to clamp onto that? What are the dangers to me, my bike and/or
my seatpost?
TIA,
Spider
I don't know -- I own two aluminum bikes (one racing, one mountain) and
I've always clamped them in the workstand. I'd rather clamp an aluminum
tube than a carbon fiber seatpost.
