MongoDB - Issue Deleting Documents

Sorry - I'm new with Mongo....

I'm using it as storage for logs in my web application. I'd like to run a rake task periodically to delete my scripted automatic site checks.

I can successfully pull the documents with the params of interest:

coll.find("params.from" => "sitecheck").to_a.count
   => 5

However, they won't drop!

coll.remove("params.from" => "sitecheck")
   => true 
coll.find("params.from" => "sitecheck").to_a.count
   => 5

I'm sure I'm doing something really stupid.... help would be apprecaited though :)
