where is how you get records limited by some condition. Using select without a where is fruitless unless you want everything in the collection. In his case, he was selecting 1 record, the select condition was ignored I think in that select is generally used to select individual fields from thh collection. However, using the where, limits the query only to records that apply to the condition.
