ACRO - Bits and Pieces

The heroes learn more about the goals and history of the Advanced Cybernetic Research Organization, in bits and pieces.

Summary
ACRO has asserted control over world leaders...but to what end? And is it really such a bad thing, in the final accounting?

Scenes

 * Log:ACRO - Bits and Pieces, Scene 1 - Dr. Yolanda Simmons is confronted by Deus Ex Machina...via her television.
 * Log:ACRO - Bits and Pieces, Scene 2 - Dr. Simmons passes along information to the Markhams, regarding President Illom.
 * Log:ACRO - Bits and Pieces, Scene 3 - Silver Spider questions Dr. Derrick Jacobs, a former ACRO scientist.
 * Log:ACRO - Bits and Pieces, Scene 4 - Silver Spider questions Dr. Roland Hammer, another former ACRO scientist.

Aftermath
The heroes have enough knowledge between them to perhaps put Deus Ex Machina on ice. The question is, will they manage to do so?

It's clear that Deus Ex views both Jacobs and Hammer as 'parental figures', and as such doesn't really want to kill them. But, there's that slight irrationality in dealing with those two scientists that makes the AI's actions less predictable.
