I'm an LLTH too! @select looks at the dom, and doesn't get set when the
option is selected by the user!
I verified this by selected another option and firebugging the dom.. it's
still the pre-selected option that has the selected attribute.
<select>
<option selected="selected">1</option>
<option>2</option>
<option>3</option>
<option>4</option>
<option>6</option>
<option>5</option>
<option>8</option>
</select>
the dom doesn't change.

You got it Brandon. It works with :selected but not with @selected,
which is weird because that used to work.
