Then explain to me, if we are not in a contract, how you can bind me to 
a "no revocation" clause. Explain it to me, slowly, please.

Ignorance of the law is no excuse.
A bare license is simply permission.
When you allow someone to enter your house you are giving them a (bare) 
license to enter your house. When you tell them to leave you are 
rescinding that license. You can do so at any time.
Now if they pay you for "I can enter your house for 30 days", then 
because there is consideration, and a contract, you cannot then reneg on 
that term.
> >I CAN RESCIND IT AT ANY TIME.
> wrong
You just agreed that we are not in a contract, how can you now declare 
that I cannot rescind the license. Please explain you reasoning
> sorry m8. you are wrong
Give you legal reasoning.
