[Hidden-tech] Volunteer needed to move WordPress site

A simple import/export only pulls pages and posts, it doesn't pull setting,
plugins, theme files, galleries (non wordpress).  My question is why would
anyone want to go to Wordpress.com for hosting.  Granted it's free, but you
know what you get when you pay free for your hosting????

A great man once said, "It's unwise to pay too much, but it is worse to pay
too little.  When you pay too much, you lose a little money - that is all.
When you pay too little, you sometimes lose everything because the thing
you bought was incapable of doing the thing it was bought to do.  The
common law of business balance prohibits paying a little and getting a lot;
it can't be done.  If you deal with the lowest bidder, it is well to add
something for the risk you run.  And if you do that, you will have enough
to pay for something better."
