Narrative:

I was cleared to taxi from north t-hangars to runway 35. In order to get to runway 35, I had to cross the north end of runway 17-35. Since I was cleared to runway 35 west/O any restrictions, I crossed runway 17-35. The ATC's questioned why I crossed the runway. I explained that his clearance did not specify any 'hold short of 17' restriction. Callback conversation with reporter revealed the following: reporter is also a controller. He stated olathe controller claims last sentence of 7110.65 section 7, paragraph 3-81b indicates 'this does not authorize to enter or cross assigned takeoff runway at any point.' according to reporter other pilots have had same problem and other controllers agreed with reporter's interpretation. Reporter also considers that he crossed runway 17, not 35.
