From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Yes, thank you! Just call it Linux.
I think going of out your way to type four more letters shows appropriate appreciation for the historical significance of the GNU project.
I think that sort of pedantry over semantics is one of the reasons the Linux community has such a bad reputation.
You vlassifying it as "pedantry" supports my point. It's also ironic, considering you told somebody else to not call it GNU+Linux instead of the other way around.
Pick one.
