AcMo Applied Sciences

Does anyone know where this adamantium is located?

AcMo is always seeking a competitive advantage.  We hope to stumble onto the bit of technology that is going to allow us to crush our competitors before they even become aware that there is a conflict.  That strategy is the foundation for our F-One dreams.  Our goal of acquiring a competitive F-One car via non-traditional methods has brought a stark realization into focus.  AcMo does not have an applied sciences department that is well versed in manipulating exotic materials.  A strong reason for the delay in the completion of our plastic cars is Snob’s limited expertise dealing with the intricacies of the bonding elements involved.

All of that is going to change starting Monday.  That day will mark the opening of the AcMo Exotic Materials Lab.  The lab will work hard to expand our knowledge base for current and future projects.  This is important for both our ground based and aeronautical projects.  We need to be beyond the forefront in innovative breakthroughs in every field we operate.

We will endeavor to determine the upper limits of adamantium and whether or not it can be fused with the human skeletal structure.  While the increased weight may cause problems on Earth, we should have a far better time in space should the need for an indestructible warrior arise in zero gravity.

The lab is always in need of additional sources for the following materials:  vibranium, unobtanium, graphene, and Inconel™.  If you have any or all of the above or know of viable sources to procure it, please contact us immediately.  We do not have any time to waste digging holes in the ground looking for this stuff.

This is what we were supposed to receive.

A recent ordering mix-up has us scrambling to unload several boxes full of case files instead of the reams of Inconel™ I thought we had ordered.  It turns out that it is smart to proofread orders before sending them via mobile apps.  Our helpful and intelligent autocorrect keyboard decided that we needed to order “Innocent” instead of the Inconel™ we wanted.  I didn’t proof the order because I was in a hurry while testing a client's vehicle and now my haste is costing us time we didn't have in the first place.  I wanted to burn the files we received but these are important because a lot of the cases involve defendants who were found guilty but may actually be innocent.  I don’t know why the foundry would have re-routed our order to the Innocence Project without confirming with us first, but that’s what happened.

Snob has sent an update that appears to be an ultimatum upon first glance.  That can’t be right though.  He has indicated that he is working at his maximum capacity, which is a 1% completion rate every three years.  He said that he is following the model Toyota used for the construction of the Lexus LFA supercar.  That was on a 10-year schedule because Toyota had to waste time inventing a new technique for creating carbon fiber.  The drawback to such a long gestation period was that the transmission was obsolete before the car went on sale, the entire car was overweight—despite all of the specially spun carbon fiber—and it was underpowered.  Add an overinflated base price and we have a fried turkey.

We don’t want any of that to occur with the AcMo Scuderia F-One car, so we are treating this as a very serious situation.  Snob has decided that he must create his own loom to spin his own special version of carbon fiber to build his own bricks.  The loom won’t be operational for at least 3 years.  Snob says he would be willing to bump his completion progress to 5 or maybe even 10% per year if I throw in a Bugatti Veyron with his Ferrari 488 GTO.  He is doing this because he thinks he is not expendable.  He is wrong, but it is so hard to find good people who know how glue works.

Speaking of overweight and slow to market...

Scagnetti was following this one until the driver signaled right and went left and lost him.  We really would have benefitted by adding this vehicle to our test fleet.  AcMo would never have relinquished possession of a Veyron to Snob, but we would let him think it was a possibility.  He’s just gullible enough for that to work.

My gut is telling me that Snob is extorting AcMo as some form of retribution, but his reputation is the one that will be tarnished if this effort fails to materialize.  We are actively seeking applicants who have experience assembling F-One cars in case the situation with Snob can’t be resolved.  Former Toyota employees who worked on the LFA project receive priority consideration.
