I've always thought that NC was pretty clear too. It really isn't a hard 
concept to grasp. All the angst and what-ifs surrounding the issue is 
simply the seeking of a loophole, justification, or way to wriggle out 
of a pretty clear instruction in the license.

    Do not use this for commercial or financial gain!

If you come across an NC work and want to use it in a commercial venture 
then either contact the author or move on and find something else.
