As someone who's listed things on Craigslist before I can tell you this lady is probably getting bombarded with spammy calls and e-mails. Unfortunately it sounds like you got lumped in with them. I'd show up with a copy of the BBS Documentary, some printed out stills from your arcade interviews so far, and a camera in the trunk in case you catch them on a good day and they say, "c'mon then."

I wonder if showing up in person would help or hurt? I also wonder if you could say to them: "Why don't I send you a copy of some of the segments of my documentary of the history of the BBS; I understand it seems like a strange request to want to interview you, because I think your story is important to the story I am trying to tell with my film."
