The older languages are still the standards by which modern programming languages are measured. Fortran, COBOL, Lisp, and C/C++ are all used as baselines to evaluate newer languages. Of course, the "new kids" are being used as standards more and more often. Java, Ruby, Perl, Python, and other more modern languages are being used to measure how "good" a new language is.
