dnsadmin@ is no longer, but I was able to get a ticket past the 
front-line business support to an _incredibly_ helpful enterprise-level 
support desk who figured out what was going on and paged (!) their DNS 
team to intervene.

I figured that the depths of Bell Canada were innavigable but we managed 
to get a resolution a day sooner than a TTL.
