I've been using Hadoop for years.  I know about the various modes it can run 
in.  The question is, if you think this problem arises from local mode, then 
why is Whirr apparently deploying in that mode in the first place.  I pretty 
much followed the standard Whirr tutorials without modification, so why am I 
seeing behavior that differs from anyone else who would follow such a Whirr 
tutorial?
