Did I say ANYWHERE that it would not allow that? Did you see the
"only" I wrote above? And the "every copy" and the "distribution must
be allowed"?

Have YOU read MY words? Do you pay Linus Thorwalds for every one of
your kernel?  Would you be able to use Linux freely, if you had to?
No, you wouldn't and that is because the GPL does not put any
(monetary) restrictions on the distribution of the kernel. 

Yes, you may charge, but no, you're not obliged to. That's all I'm
telling here for days, so please stop putting words in my mouth I
didn't say. 

(sorry for getting impatient)

ciao
