Thanx you guys! Last night I made sure that he was still in farmer mode before I went to bed. And sure enough, when I checked this morning to see how he did, I was elated to discover he had finally become a Master Farmer! Now he's going to work on Mastering Research...another yet close one for him and then he'll be a Village Elder.

I'm really rooting for him to become a Village Elder because he deserves it. He ALWAYS stays on task. Whatever task you give him to do, he stays with it until you place him somewhere else.

Thanx again!
