after creating a puzzle like this and your two top-level crossword tourney finishes (that i know of), you have no right to call anything you say or do dumb.
perhaps you don't need to have something smart to say (though it helps), but you do need to have SOMETHING to say, which is why i will never be able to write anything.
i would have solved without checks, but 36a/37d did RATTLE me.
(ps you have a typo on 49d - my name is not otis)
