===Content===
The /pilgrims website mentions Mallett Rings. Further research indicates this may be a reference to Ronald L. Mallett, Ph.D., Professor of Physics at University of Connecticut. Some of his research includes time travel and rings of light. [http://www.physics.uconn.edu/~mallett/main/research_activities.htm http://www.physics.uconn.edu/~mallett/main/research_activities.htm]
Furthermore, the name Chiarello is mentioned in the logs. This is a direct reference to Fabio Chiarello, who since 1992 has been involved in major research in the field of Quantum computing. Currently, Fabio Chiarello right now is the major researcher in the field of [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SQUID SQUIDs] or Superconducting Quantum Interference Devices.

It seems that a group of self-described "pilgrims" working for a quantum encryption company have devised a method of sending information from [[Year Zero]] back through time to the present, in the hope that we will change their reality. This suggests that the Nine Inch Nails album [[Year Zero]] is an artifact from 15 years in the future.
Additionally, there is hidden content in the form of fragments of obscured text embedded the background of the site. These five bits of text directly reference a line from Huck Finn. The passage that is quoted in the fragments:
'It was a close place. I took it up, and held it in my hand. I was a-trembling, because I’d got to decide, forever, betwixt two things, and I knowed it. I studied a minute, sort of holding my breath, and then says to myself: “All right then, I’ll go to hell”—and tore it up. It was awful thoughts and awful words, but they was said. And I let them stay said; and never thought no more about reforming.'
