If C had been recently invented, it would deserve *some* bashing. But for
something invented 30 years ago, it deserves no bashing. It was an excellent
portable language for machines of that era. And in the hands of a competent
programmer it is still an excellent tool.

As for C++, that deserves a moderate amount of bashing.

But opinions are like nipples: most everyone has some.
