[Curt at Atari Museum]

Vince is quite right, I've had family of former Atari employee's contact 
me and then disappear for over a year to suddenly reappear out of the 
blue and want to ship everything their spouse or relative had, many 
don't even wait for me to send them money to pay for shipping and boxes 
start arriving within days, its happened on a number of occassions.

There is really nothing more you can do except to be patient and perhaps 
make the occassional ping once every 3-6 months just to see what's up, 
but don't push or you can find that you'll push the opportunity out of 
reach, many people handle things such as belongings diffeently then 
others and you just have to wait it out.
