The proofreader has been given an hour's head start. I believe I know the simple fix you have in mind. Thanks for that! A.J. and Michael, thank you both for your kind words.

I think there might be one error though — the letter that must start 71A doesn't seem to square with the answer for 54D. If I'm right, the problem could be solved with a new clue for 54D. If I'm just confused here, I'd welcome help from anyone who can clear things up. Thanks again to Barrel of a Pencil for a fine puzzle.

The pencil-themed answers were very cool. Very entertaining puzzle. Took me an afternoon (and a bit of Google) to finally get it all. The pencil-themed answers were very cool.
