Compilers and interpreters for almost all other languages are written mostly in C or C++. Most of OS kernels, APIs, shells, command line utilities, my favorite editor etc are all written in C. Not a day goes by that I don't download C code, make and install it on my system. So, I think C will remain one of the most popular languages around.
