The atariage.com forums might be the place to go if the author hasn't tried that already. There's a number of old-timers who occasionally pop in on the forums, as well as a bunch of people who just seem to know a lot in general about the history of Atari games and the companies who made them. Edit: Nevermind, as I see one of the links in the article is actually to a forum post there!
