C syntax really isn't that hard to understand, it has persisted for a reason, and I am quite happy when I get to write C. It's not the ideal language for web-programming but it is certainly the right language for a lot of things. Statements like "good programmers who know or knew C at one point don't use C in their projects and will never contribute to open source projects written in C" are just unsubstantiated fabrications.
