I'm the same way.  I write mostly in assembler, for a couple reasons 
anyway: 1 - it makes me "think" like the microcontroller, and 2 - it seems 
the little bits of C code I've written have redundundundant lines in them 
that make the code longer than if I write it in assembler.

I used to know all sorts of tricks with Fortran II that allowed me to 
write programs that were much shorter than if you didn't know them.

I'm not knocking the higher-level languages, it's just that I haven't 
really needed them myself.
