I like what I've been hearing about C. I like that it is fast and simple. It's like a tank or cannon. Simple, reliable, and ubiquitous. It runs everything above it, which is everything most people use the computer for. Then only thing beneath it is assembly and machine code. It like feeding bullets into a machine gun and shooting the gun at the same time. You are right in the middle of the power a computer has, not the being shot at if you can understand my analogy.
C can do anything and do it better than any other language today and doesn't consume the overhead they do.
I'm definitely going punch away at writing more C code and nailing those graphics frameworks down like Cairo and Gtk+.
