OK, I'll quite happily agree with that. I'm generally wary of people who won't venture outside one language (one-trick ponies). I personally try to avoid using C++ except where it's clearly the best choice, mostly because I used it as my main language for the best part of a decade (high performance computing and game development). The thing is, C++ is still possibly the best choice in that narrow segment where C alone is too tedious but a high-level language won't work for some reason.
