There's nothing wrong with using the right tool for the right job. C will live a long long time, because you don't need more than C to do whatever you need to do, on an embedded processor. For other work, PC and browser apps, whatever, other languages do better. Personally, I like what I've seen of python; but C is my bread and butter, because it does all I need it to do, and very well.
