Although, for all practical purposes Linus did infact "work on the Hurd".
What do you mean? The Hurd is not even similar in principle, operation or license to Linux.
It think its fair to say that for all practical purposes Linux performs the role of the kernel for the "GNU System", the role the Hurd was to perform.
