For a project of this size and scope, a Tcl application with an sqlite3

Only on the internet can someone ask a simple question and get tcl as the answer. :-/

Well...

1. Where else would you ask the question, if not "the internet?"

2. tcl is still pretty cool - some great things are written in it, like fossil-scm (the DCVS used for sqlite, built on sqlite, in tcl, by the author of sqlite)

Seems like a great idea.

Theory is when you know everything but nothing works.
Practice is when everything works but no one knows why.
In our lab, theory and practice are combined:
