Hi all,

I've written some python code for a spout that emits tuple values based on
user's Twitter timelines. In order to emit the proper tuple values, I
iterate through the user's timeline of historical tweets. However, I find
that if I include the code to iterate through a user's timeline in my
nextTuple method, the spout does not properly emit tuples. Instead, I see
the following debug message printed out whenever a tuple should be emitted:

66861 [Thread-14-counter] INFO  backtype.storm.daemon.task - Emitting:
counter __metrics [#<TaskInfo
backtype.storm.metric.api.IMetricsConsumer$TaskInfo@457cb2f7> [#<DataPoint
[__ack-count = {}]> #<DataPoint [__sendqueue = {capacity=1024, write_pos=0,
read_pos=0, population=0}]> #<DataPoint [__receive = {capacity=1024,
write_pos=3, read_pos=2, population=1}]> #<DataPoint [__process-latency =
{}]> #<DataPoint [__transfer-count = {}]> #<DataPoint [__execute-latency =
{}]> #<DataPoint [__fail-count = {}]> #<DataPoint [__emit-count = {}]>
#<DataPoint [__execute-count = {}]>]]

It's not clear to me what is going wrong. Any pointers on how to debug this
would be much appreciated.

Thanks!
