According to 'Free On-line Dictionary' C was designed ~1972.

I didn't say that old languages would not use it. I rather meant that 
"really old" ones like basic (~1960) and pascal (~1967) would not use 
short-circuit evaluation but its succesor (like e.g. Oberon in the case of 
Pascal) are using it.
