Point of C?

Whats the purpose of C still existing??
Doesnt C++ stick its foot up C's ass or is C still around so B doesnt get lonely?

Who the fuck said Java? I was thinking Lisp, Python, Ruby... Except for small, mission-critical, demanding points, where C can be justified, as well as anything that requires low-level interaction with the hardware, such as the OS, there's little reason to torture yourself with low-level languages. (And in any case, there's no reason to torture yourself with Java.)
