Here's my totally crazy story:

Let's say I install WordPress. Whatever version is current, at the time. Let's pretend WP 3.0.

I publish a ton of content. I mean a ton! Articles, pictures, videos galore!!!

Then I go on a vacation traveling around the world without my computer for 5 years. From time to time, I may stop at an Internet Cafe' and write a new post on my blog. Or I may not.

When I get home 5 years later --- behold, my content is still available on the internet, because my WordPress never crashed for 5 years. Theme is intact. Plugins continue running in the same condition as when I first installed. Database is intact. Spam was controlled. Hackers were prevented.

How did this happen? Because WordPress creates a stable, safe, and secure version that does not require upgrading!

How about that for an awesome fantasy?

I think that it should be true.
