BOOM!

scheme@(guile-user)> (hash-get-handle queryResults "documents")
$29 = ("documents" #<hash-table 297f820 17/31> #<hash-table 2982700
17/31> #<hash-table 29896a0 17/31> #<hash-table 298f640 17/31> #\
<hash-table 29915e0 17/31> #<hash-table 299d580 17/31> #<hash-table
29a1520 17/31> #<hash-table 29a34c0 17/31> #<hash-table 29a6460 \
17/31> #<hash-table 29f7400 17/31> #<hash-table 29fd3a0 17/31>
#<hash-table 2a08340 17/31> #<hash-table 2a1c2e0 17/31> #<hash-table \
2a4b280 17/31> #<hash-table 2a96220 17/31> #<hash-table 2aa31c0 17/31>
#<hash-table 2aa5160 17/31> #<hash-table 2aaa100 17/31> #<has\
h-table 2ab10a0 17/31> #<hash-table 2abb040 17/31> #<hash-table
2accfe0 17/31> #<hash-table 2acef80 17/31> #<hash-table 2ad1f20 17/3\
1> #<hash-table 2af1ec0 17/31> #<hash-table 2af4e60 17/31>)

All good now.

Excellent suggestion. I'll do that. Thanks to both you and ttn!
