OK, first of all, there are many different "BSD"-licenses, so you should 
make clear to which one you are refering.

Second I recommend to read [0], and check whether your license is listed 
there. And in the short paragraph describing each license you will find 
a statement about the compatibility with the GPL.

I'm not sure, I understand you correctly, but refering to your last 
"sentence" (I usually end them with one point, not three ;): it is not 
about just a sentence to be included, but about a license being 
compatible "in spirit".

The main difference between BSD-style licenses and GPL-style is, that 
BSD allows you to do whatever you want (copyleft). Therefore you can 
take the code, modify it and then sell it without releasing the source 
code.
This is in contrast to GPL, where you are forced to release the source 
code of whatever you change to to original code. Note: you only have to 
release it to your customers, so as long as you're developing for 
yourself (see meebo), you are free to do whatever you want.
