"At present, no language can rival, let alone surpass, Fortran when it comes to implementing long-lived, large-scale, massively-parallel scientific and engineering applications; not even C and C++."

Huh??? A tremendous amount of scientific computing happens in C, C++, and many other languages. I have worked with Fortran, worked with Fortran-heavy labs in academia, and this is just a nonsensical thing to say.
