Gosh, I wonder if NSI would do an emergency root server update for me.

Amusingly enough, when I was the CE for a tiny little ISP HQ'd in
Dallas and our landlord locked us out, I actually _did_ get NSI to do
an emergency push changing out root NS's to our Florida location's
machines.  

I guess it depends on how desparate you sound.

Of course, this _was_ 2 years ago.
