This was the best advice!
I emailed RIPE and cc'd my ISP, then called my ISP to make sure they saw my
email to RIPE. My ISP just emailed me to say that my PTR records would be
put on their DNS servers tonight at midnight. I don't know if RIPE emailed
them, but I think my ISP didn't want to risk being on any possible
"nonconforming ISP" lists.
Before I sent the email to RIPE, I also called the Internic, but they told
me that I would have to change to an Internic sponsored ISP to get PTR
records.
I'll see if my ISP actually did it tomorrow, but it was terrific to have an
authority like RIPE on my side.
After all, I did pay for that IP address block. The least they can do is put
both A and PTR records in their DNS servers.
