I'm not familiar with ez-where, but it sounds like it's made it possible for you to do lots of things without understanding the underlying SQL.

Spend 30 minutes with your database's SQL docs and another 15 minutes with the ActiveRecord rdoc, and all will be come clear. It's not particularly difficult, but it is essential.
