This article by Shane Schick looks at changes Steve Ballmer should consider making at Microsoft now that Bill Gates is out the door. A couple of the most interesting: making user education a priority and establishing an open source project.

How many people would get confused if someone were to say "Linux" and think that the speaker meant the kernel and not a whole distribution? RMS fanbois maybe, but even then they know that the speaker meant Linux distribution (i.e., its usable state), but they'd rather just be pedantic asstwits.
The fact is, whatever the original intentions of RMS, people say "Linux" to mean "Linux distribution". There's no confusion. That's what "Linux" means to everybody and you and your crybaby pedant friends will have to get over that.
Oh, and there really is no confusion, because if people intend to speak about the kernel, they say "the Linux kernel".
