two key things to try (for anyone ever wondering why a query matches documents)
1. add &debugQuery=true and look at the explain text below -- anything that contributed to the score is listed there 2. check /admin/analysis.jsp -- this will let you see how analyzers break text up into tokens. Not sure off hand, but I'm guessing the WordDelimiterFilterFactory has something to do with it...
