I asked my dad this question, and his first response was "Pfft, do they even USE FORTRAN anymore?"
Then, when I prodded him, he basically said that it won't be too hard to learn. Just be aware that the languages you know are, in his words, more web oriented, whereas FORTRAN focuses more on calculations. So go for it, but be aware that your experience in the prior languages won't necessarily translate well into FORTRAN.
How ya doing, buddy?
