C/C++

So my question is simple ; of the two which would be advisable to learn first.

All the C++ books tell me to learn C++ over C ,but on the internet im told that learning C gives better grasps of concepts.

Which should i learn first and why?

Some reading (a few hundred posts) is in order: http://groups.google.com.au/group/comp.lang.c++.moderated/browse_frm/thread/84253d37f970dd2b?hl=en&; It starts getting interesting around post 20 or so.

tl;dr: RAII ain't all that.
