When you repeatedly claim that there is confusion about whether the GPL restricts running GPLed code I think it is perfectly in context to provide a straightforward quote from the GPL that explicitly says it does not restrict such things. The whole flamewar about ambiguous use of English is a red herring, because the GPL doesn't use the word "utilize", and hardly uses the word "use" at all, and not in any cases where this affects the argument.
