RMS, is that you?

​
Linux is the kernel.
GNU is the organisation that wrote the basic opensource userspace tools (mv, cp, ls, rm, etc...) and the license that the kernel and many (most?) softwares on the platform use.

Some people call it Linux, others GNU/Linux. I like to call it Bob.

[sam1]

Well i suppose calling it Bob is okay.
