I got the script to work just fine.
However, I would suggest you change the way you execute it.
Instead of using the command sh querykernel.sh, I recommend you chmod the file so it is executable and run it direct.
An example of how to do this would be
$ chmod 755 querykernel.sh $ ./querykernel.sh
The script runs but it takes a second for data to be displayed to screen
