Can anyone please help me figure out why the "isfdb for Book" searches keep failing:

Author is: Brian W. Aldiss
Title is: Dreamer, Schemer

It gives the result: No records found

http://www.isfdb.org/cgi-bin/edit/tp...OPERATOR_2=AND

The book is there:

http://www.isfdb.org/cgi-bin/title.cgi?52324

If you go to the isfdb advanced search: http://www.isfdb.org/cgi-bin/search.cgi and put in the above Author & Title it finds it OK.

This is happening on lots of isfdb searches and it's a real shame, would be a brilliant tool for me otherwise.
