(Does this mean I have to pay Mr. Ellison to put this on my blog?)

It's a good sentiment, but unfortunately these things are relatively hard to enforce, I think. But I agree with Mr. Ellison completely -- they shouldn't be hard to enforce; credit should always be given where credit was due and when appropriate (as in the example he relates) money should absolutely change hands.
As for whether putting this video on your blog should cost you money, it's on YouTube, so isn't it in the public domain? (I'm pretty sure they don't allow copyrighted material on YouTube.)
By day, I work as a writer/editor at Paws, Inc., Jim Davis' creative studio in Indiana. By night, I write and draw. Burning the midnight oil, I've created the comic strip EEK! (syndicated online by Uclick), hundreds of humorous greeting cards for companies like American Greetings, fiction and non-fiction for BOYS' LIFE, several award-winning children's books, and cartoons for MAD, MAD Australia, MAD Germany, WALL STREET JOURNAL, BOYS' LIFE, MEDICAL ECONOMICS, PHYSICIAN'S WEEKLY, THE SUN, WOMAN'S WORLD, NICKELODEON, READER'S DIGEST and PLAYBOY. I think I need a nap.

I won't tell Ellison if you won't...
