I still write C occasionally e.g. to speed up critical parts of an R script, and I find it useful retaining enough fluency to understand a piece of C code when I come across it.
As for C++ - a devil-spawned language that needs a stake driving through its heart. I bailed about the time that expression templates (e.g. Boost) where becoming popular and making applications completely unreadable and undebuggable. Meanwhile, I try to adhere to the Pragmatic Programmers maxim that one should learn, or at least play with, one new language every year to encourage more flexible thinking.
