[R] Wrong output due to what I think might be a data type issue (zoo read in problem)

[knavero]

Here's the small scale version of the R script:

Here's the file that I'm reading in:

http://r.789695.n4.nabble.com/file/n4487682/weatherData.txt weatherData.txt 

I apologize for the length of the data. I tried to cut it down to 12 lines,
however, it wasn't reproducing the bad output that I wanted to show. 

The problem is that my whole data set shifts down. For example, I have this
when the raw data is read in or scanned in as a zoo object:

"> rawData
(12/01/10 00:53:00) (12/01/10 01:53:00) (12/01/10 02:53:00) (12/01/10
03:53:00) 
                 41                  40                  39                 
38 
(12/01/10 04:53:00) (12/01/10 05:53:00) (12/01/10 06:53:00) (12/01/10
07:53:00) 
                 38                  37                  36                 
39 
(12/01/10 08:53:00) (12/01/10 09:53:00) (12/01/10 10:53:00) (12/01/10
11:53:00) 
                 43                  47                  50             "

Then when I run it through my code, which should feed out the exact same
thing (the values at least), the output is this:

"> intData
(12/01/10 00:53:00) (12/01/10 01:53:00) (12/01/10 02:53:00) (12/01/10
03:53:00) 
               11.0                10.0                 9.0                
8.0 
(12/01/10 04:53:00) (12/01/10 05:53:00) (12/01/10 06:53:00) (12/01/10
07:53:00) 
                8.0                 7.0                 6.0                
9.0 
(12/01/10 08:53:00) (12/01/10 09:53:00) (12/01/10 10:53:00) (12/01/10
11:53:00) 
               13.0                17.0                20.0               
24.0 "

Finally, my dput(rawData) and dput(intData):

"> dput(rawData)
structure(c(11L, 10L, 9L, 8L, 8L, 7L, 6L, 9L, 13L, 17L, 20L, 
24L, 27L, 27L, 27L, 26L, 23L, 21L, 20L, 21L, 18L, 16L, 14L, 14L, 
12L, 10L, 12L, 11L, 10L, 10L, 11L, 14L, 16L, 20L, 23L, 27L, 25L, 
26L, 29L, 28L, 27L, 26L, 24L, 24L, 25L, 24L, 23L, 23L, 21L, 20L, 
18L, 19L, 18L, 18L, 16L, 18L, 21L, 24L, 25L, 27L, 27L, 29L, 29L,..." 

"> dput(intData)
structure(c(11, 10, 9, 8, 8, 7, 6, 9, 13, 17, 20, 24, 27, 27, 
27, 26, 23, 21, 20, 21, 18, 16, 14, 14, 12, 10, 12, 11, 10, 10, 
11, 14, 16, 20, 23, 27, 25, 26, 29, 28, 27, 26, 24, 24, 25, 24, 
23, 23, 21, 20, 18, 19, 18, 18, 16, 18, 21, 24, 25, 27, 27, 29, 
29, 28, 26, 25, 24, 22, 22, 22, 21, 21, 21, 20, 21, 21, 20, 21,..." 

I am not sure how to interpret this, however I have tried researching on
what the "L" following the number is, and it seems they are "list" values? 
Also, I have read ?colClasses in the R manual, and have tried colClasses.
>From experience using C, there seems to be a related error message saying:

"scan() expected 'a real', got 'M'"

What is "M"? Is that matrix? Any clarification of the issue and solution is
appreciated. I apologize in advance for any noob mistake related to asking
questions correctly according to forum specifications. Thanks for any help!
I will keep messing around with colClasses....I feel like I am close to a
solution..however, am very far from understanding the problem.
