A small spider bite, which gives me the ability to punch someone in the mouth through their TV or computer screen....It has always been one of my ideas for an online business

I'm US-East and I've not had any issues over the last few hours - maybe its cleared itself?

Thank you for stepping in with the explanations and the corrections. I sometimes forget we're not all working with the same dataset

That was a weapon/name from a different time. The first time I heard that name was during Desert Shield/Storm when it was tasked with defending against Iraqi SCUDs (if I recall correctly it wasn't very good at stopping ballistic missles, thankfully the current iteration seems to be much better). Back then being a patriot was a positive thing, it hadn't been subverted by whatever passes for a "patriot" these days

IIRC Iron Dome is just one component of their layered air defense system. Iron Dome/Beam is just one layer. Here is a graphic of what it looks like .

Think of a carrier strike group (I'm not a Navy guy so YMMV). The first outer ring are the fast attack subs, then you've got (in concentric rings), the cruisers, destroyers, then frigates...and when all else fails there's CWIS
Sorry about the toktik
