Well, it is done, because there are people out there who mention that
GNU is such an important piece of the whole operating system. If no
one would mention GNU and it would be only the "Linux system" - this
wouldn't seem like much credit to the GNU people to me.

I think it is a good and also important thing to speak about Free
Software. But your words make this attitude sound so negative
('crusade') - I don't agree with that.

Really? I am not so sure wether the Free Software movement would
exist nowadays without the FSF and the GNU Project.
