st: I can't get List to work

["Snapp, Kevin Michael" <ksnapp@iupui.edu>]

Hello Stata helpers,

I have a two panel data set.  I set it up with:
 xtset
       panel variable:  id (strongly balanced)
        time variable:  year, 2009 to 2011
                delta:  2 units

I have some outliers, d_satisfactin == -4, I'd like to look at so I get a list of them with:
list satisfaction d_satisfaction id if d_satisfaction == -4

here is a sample of the list:
           | satisfa~n   d_sati~n         id |
           |---------------------------------|
19084. | Completly         -4   2860-179 |
19090. | Completly         -4    2860-30 |
26908. | Completly         -4    5154-45 |



Then I try to look at one by using the id number with:
list year satisfaction d_satisfaction id if id == 846-6

I get this:
          +---------------------------------+
          | satisfa~n   d_sati~n         id |
          |---------------------------------|
 1397. |      Very          .   1131-172 |
 1398. | Completly         -1   1131-172 |
       +---------------------------------+

That's not the id number i asked for! What gives?

here is the description of id:
. desc id

              storage   display    value
variable name   type    format     label      variable label
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
id              long    %8.0g      id2        Unique Individual ID

if that helps.

Any help is appreciated.
