Hi Nate, 

I was curious to know how you guys are using this library you built at 
Branchout!

Is this a tool that you're using to interface with the Scalr API from Ruby 
applications? 
Are you using it as a developer tool for "CLI access" to Scalr 
(like https://github.com/Scalr/pecha would?)
Probably something else!

Thanks!
