found them...  Daniel Au had kept them archived...
In his last update (and move) of his site, he
no longer has them...  HOWEVER..
they are still on the net at:

http://www.surfplaza.com/ascii-art/dcau/Net_Surfer_License_Collection

The instructions are at:
http://www.surfplaza.com/ascii-art/dcau/Net_Surfer_License_Template

I'll add them.. but keep in mind that Daniel Au's email
address is not valid... nor is he still updating the
collection.
(my 'old' license never even made the list!)

It's done!  Always able to help :)

If anyone else would like to make an NSL, here's how.  When you're done, send
me a copy (dca...@nwu.edu) so I can include it in the list!

Anyone else who is interested in making one, please try -- it's not too
difficult and it's fun just to be able to "see" what types of people frequent
these ascii groups!  I've included the template below:

        Sorry to inform you, by not turning off MIME, using lines
longer than 72 characters per line and posting HTML in a Usenet 
newsgroup, you have failed the Internet Drivers Test, better luck 
next time.
