[REBOL] How does Rebol earn it's stripes?

[bhandley]

When I first read on Rebol's site that the distinction between code and data is blurred I cheered. I looked at the language constructs and thought that looks like some of my psuedo code. But then hmm...now what?   I've been trying to figure out what Rebol's niche is(/are). It is described as a messaging language. Between what and what? I can see how flexible it is. Less clear is the readability of the code I've seen.   I would really appreciate it if people could tell me what applications of Rebol they have made (or dreamt of) that clearly show Rebol (with it's announced features) as being a better choice than a general purpose language for those applications.     Thank's for your time.
