[ select/only b k
[ ]

REBOL functions tend to treat series as a sequence of values, not
as a single value. They have the /ONLY refinement to treat series
as a single value. You SELECT was serching for the value 2
followed by the value 3, not for the value [2 3].
Also notice that:
>> blk: [1 2 "one-two" 1 3 "one-three" 2 3 "two-three"]
== [1 2 "one-two" 1 3 "one-three" 2 3 "two-three"]
>> select blk [1 2]
== "one-two"
>> select blk [1 3]
== "one-three"
>> select blk [2 3]
== "two-three"
Regards,
Gabriele.
