There also seems to be a more complete list of english stopwords here:
http://www.dcs.gla.ac.uk/idom/ir_resources/linguistic_utils/
However this list again does not include contractions. I can take this
list, check it and submit it to you Oleg, but do you want me to add
contractions?
eg. wasn't, isn't, it's, etc.?
