C was used as it was invented as a systems programming language and was largely untested until unix was made and improved over time. C matured as a result of unix large scale adoption. Lisp was already more fully featured and had and still has more features than C. A kernel in lisp would have been better actually.

The great Dennis Ritchie is Dennis, not Dennise (Please alter your graphic so that he doesnt sound like the mother of C and UNIX) :)

Raja: Most if not all those languages you mention are written in C and are interpreted and so by definition slower than ‘C’. If you are writing CGI the C is probably NOT suitable.
Kind regards
