Hello Jeff,
That's generally been my experience also, but we can't forget large private
networks like AOL. When you have a large private network like that, their DNS
may update more slowly and replication to the furthest reaches might take
longer.

Hence, the general "2 weeks" admonition although 3 days should be plenty for
people who aren't connected to large private networks.
