fstab and uuid problems

Is it normal that fstab is totally ignoring my UUID for my usb key? When I
use the UUID it mounts two drives in my "Places" menu, one that works and
the other that doesn't, but when I use the hard coded /dev/ path it works
and mounts only one drive under "Places"
cat /etc/fstab
# /etc/fstab: static file system information.
#
# Use 'blkid -o value -s UUID' to print the universally unique identifier
# for a device; this may be used with UUID= as a more robust way to name
# devices that works even if disks are added and removed. See fstab(5).
#
# <file system> <mount point> <type> <options> <dump> <pass>

# / was on /dev/sda6 during installation
