Year Zero in 2022According to both a statement from Trent Reznor and an image clue from The Year Zero Website entitled "I Am Trying To Believe"[1], Year Zero occurs in 2022. Clue One http://www.ninwiki.com/images/b/b0/Yz2022.jpg The faded image to the left of the main article shows the date "2022", yet the article itself is reduplicated and clearer, showing the date "0000". Clue Two In an MTV News Article from February 15th, 2007[2] Trent Reznor reveals: "Concept record. Sixteen tracks. What's it about? Well, it takes place about 15 years in the future. Things are not good. If you imagine a world where greed and power continue to run their likely course, you'll have an idea of the backdrop." Clue Three On the "Church of Plano" Website [3] under the heading "This Week's Sermons:", the date reads Sunday, February 13. Coincidentaly, February the 13th falls on a Sunday in the year 2022. Clue Four One of the shards from The Mailstrom contains the following: "Belize has completely recovered from hurrican Imagard in 2020–(that’s -2 BA for those of you on the American System) and rebuilding has led to improvements in our infrastructure!"

The mp3 is a recording of a man (presumed to be "Angry Sniper") giving a lesson on recommended methods and best practices for conducting effective acts of rebellion, whilst simultaneously carrying out such an act. He laments the difficulty of getting a message and news coverage of revolutionary acts out to the people due to tight government restrictions on the media. To work around this, he conducts his operation at Wrigley Field during a live televised baseball game. He explains how he cheaply displayed his written message to the ballgame attendees, and then reveals that he has planted bombs of Silver Nitrate around the stadium and is stationed in a rented apartment across the street from the ballpark. Once his message is seen, he detonates the bombs. In the ensuing chaos, a prominent religious leader steps up to give a speech of promised retribution. Anticipating this, the man uses a sniper rifle to assassinate him on live television.
