Snapped coolant bleed screw

Any brilliant ideas out there for removing half of the coolant expansion tank bleed screw? I was flushing the radiator today, and while I was doing the final bleed, the screw snapped in half (with hardly any torque, which is awesome)....should have seen the fountain of coolant spouting up in the air! So, I'll grab a new one, but I'm having a rough time getting the old one out, without any top to it. I'd like to avoid drilling it, so I don't get a bunch of plastic shavings in my expansion tank.

Thanks.
