I royally screwed up my Atom feed yesterday by messing around with the id tags and now Google Reader is showing many duplicates of the posts. Is there any way I can tell it to start from scratch, now that I have fixed the id tag-structure?

The feed is at http://eseidel.org/atom.xml in case that helps..

This question is unlikely to help any future visitors; it is only relevant to a small geographic area, a specific moment in time, or an extraordinarily narrow situation that is not generally applicable to the worldwide audience of the internet. For help making this question more broadly applicable, see the FAQ.

If your feed is provided by a blog or site hosting service, please work directly with that and change it with the new Atom feed.

If your feed is publicly available, then configure your site to serve a 404, 410, or other error status message to user-agent Feedfetcher-Google.

Are you talking about a feed you've submitted to Google webmaster tools? If so delete the feed and re-submit then wait for Google to update it's feed
