While we're making silly analogies, let me make one of my own. C is a bit like a horse. It's fun to ride a horse from time to time, and there are still plenty of valid, practical reasons to ride horses. However, you're kidding yourself if you think you're going to talk me into giving up my car (well, ok... my public transportation) for a horse.
