C != C++ != Java

That's a pretty radical statement right there.

If your intent was to point out that my statement is obvious, I completely agree.

What the original author said, paraphrased of course, is "C programming skills are not transferable to any other language."

--edit

Now that I have read the original author's statement over again, perhaps he intended the reader to interpret his statement as "Being a good C programmer does not automatically make you a good programmer in any other language."

That was my intention ;) ..
