Holy moly, Unthemely! It took forever, but I finished correctly. When did you give up, David (and others)?
Only the left-side stack fell easily. I wanted 15A early on but had a couple wrong crossings and never wrote it in until much later. The east side took at least half my time -- don't know why I couldn't see 13D even with many correct letters.
Great news, btw: Todd is joining the Post Puzzler rotation!
At around 28 minutes I started googling. I had big blanks in the north and the east, mainly because I had never heard of 1A, 12D,20A, and 43A. I also had HERA for 8D (note the two matching letters with the correct answer). That increased my confidence in the dubious SERVICEROOM for 17A (note the 5 matching letters with the correct answer). I was never going to dig myself out of that hole.
