Thanks Milan, it is running now. It seems part of the problem, as you
suggested were the packages. It seems that although I just installed Rweka,
Snowball and the like they were out of date. So updataing fixed
stemDocument. As for removeWords, that began working once I cut my data in
half. Apparently there are some memory management issues I have yet to
figure out. Thanks again for the help.
