Also, I really appreciate anyone who takes the time to answer. My company 
is currently evaluating Clojure. I'm trying to determine if this is 
non-idiomatic use of the language or some other issue. Doing something like 
this can cause the bug to occur without directly calling seq on a vector:

(defn bar [my-list n]
  (if (= n 0)
      (peek my-list)
      (bar (rest my-list) (dec n))))
(bar [1 2 3] 1)

Both rest and peek work on a vector without a problem but the combination 
of the two causes problems.
