Time travellers convention

I don't understand this Time Travellers Convention thing...

"If the time travelers don't leave us their secrets, we won't be able to go back in time and see our convention in all its glory unless it is publicized in advance. "

Surely it doesn't matter if you publicise it in advance or after if someone is coming from the distant future. Hold the convention and then spend the rest of your life publicising it. But, if no one comes then you don't need to bother to publicise it and you can do something useful instead. I know there is a paradox here somewhere.

Personally, I think we are all time travellers, but it's a one way trip.

And if I am proved wrong, thank heavens I can come back and edit this. Hooray for Blogger's edit facility.
