You're totally right that lawyers want to live in Word. In the MVP version of the product, we tried to get everyone into the web app. Some people loved it, but we hit a brick wall whenever someone needed to go to Word.
We've since added native export to Word at every step in the contract lifecycle. One of our most requested features is the ability to easily re-import those Word files back into the same workflow after they've been edited, and we're working on a project right now to make that happen.

There used to be a terrestrial radionavigation system called Loran-C that could be used for positioning and timing, but it was decommissioned in 2010.
Loran-C was a high-power, low-frequency signal as opposed to the very-low-power, high-frequency signal of GPS. This made Loran-C less susceptible to jamming. It was a nice backup.
