Ever since I got my hands on Turbo C++ 1.0, back in 1993, I see no reason why one should downgrade ourselves to C.
At least C++ give us the tools to be a bit more secure, even if tainted with C's copy-paste compatibility.
You will find posts from me on Usenet, stading on C++ frontline of C vs C++ flamewars.
