I made the huge mistake of deciding that C was all I'd ever need back in the early 90's. I quickly found out that there were new technologies (HTML, Unix/Linux, awk, Perl) that I needed to learn, and pretty damned fast if I wanted to land another job.
That's a mistake I'll never make again. (I think that was also around the time that I put off procrastinating about getting a home computer, and got a Windows 95 box that I could dual boot to OS/2.)
