I was trying out an example from Practical Clojure and I don't
understand why I get different results below?  Can someone enlighten
me?

user=> @my-contacts
[#<Ref@1e26602: {:fname "Luke", :lname "VanderHart"}> #<Ref@8ca8ac:
{:fname "Stuart", :lname "Sierra"}> #<Ref@7056d5: {:fname
"John", :lname "Doe"}>]
user=> (:fname (first @my-contacts))
nil
user=> ((first @my-contacts) :fname)
"Luke"

Why would the placement of :fname change how it looks up?  I would
expect to need a deref to be able to get the "Luke" value.
