[R] Removing a space from a string

[Richard O'Keefe]

The spaces may not have been VISIBLE in the Word document,
but that does not mean that there wasn't anything THERE.

- What happens if you open the document in Word and
  save it as plain text?
- What happens if you open the document in Word and
  save it as RTF, then read that using read_rtf?
- If you do that, what does the RTF look like?
- Was the Word document typed by hand, or did was it
  the result of some other process?

The thing is, "our troubles come not as single spies,
but as whole battalions", so I'm wondering what _else_
is going wrong in the conversion process.
