Tell your DNS provider to do a reload.

Given it was just a slightly broken re-delegation, it's more feasible
for most people to have waited for usual DNS propagation than try to
convince their upstreams/ISPs to reload their DNS servers for one
non-local domain's benefit. Most ISP staff would take one look at
such a request and snicker.

Alternatively, if one uses some form of *nix, there are at least a
couple of ways to get around this.

Yes. It was a joke. Guess I shoulda been clearer.
