Addressing each question individually,

What I think: 

It's a fantastic fit for small applications and large applications in
some very specific use cases. That being said, I know the persistence
layer you use (disk, dynamo db, sql) has some effect on the performance 
so you could tune it to the use case.

Being able to execute queries that are built out of clojure data structures

def math(hours, wage, tax):
    pretax = hours * wage #figures gross income
    taxes = pretax * tax #figures how much goes into taxes
    leftover = pretax - taxes #figures how much will be leftover
    print "You have made $",pretax
    print "Put $", taxes, " in the bank for taxes."
    print "$", leftover, " is yours!!" 

print "Figure out how much to put in the bank for taxes."
print "These figures are based on working in Colorado"

"""
A script to query the Amazon Web Services usage reports programmatically.

Ideally this wouldn't exist, and Amazon would provide an API we can use 
instead, but hey - that's life.

Basically takes your AWS account username and password, logs into the
website as you, and grabs the data out. Always gets the 'All Usage Types'
