I'm writing new Fortran right now, actually. I know a lot of people who still write Fortran, though all of them work in scientific or engineering fields.
I view Fortran as only good for number crunching, but for that purpose it is difficult to beat in many respects. Fortran is very common in supercomputing applications, though C and C++ are also very common. I know a lot of people who view Fortran as antiquated, and I understand their criticisms. I prefer other programming languages in general, but all programming languages are just tools and Fortran is a good tool in some circumstances.
