Here's the email I was thinking of sending:
"Stan, I wanted to gauge whether or not you are truly interested in working together ongoing for your project. We started this project over two months ago (10/5/2010), and I have tried to re-connect several times. I have numerous other clients that I am juggling at the moment, and I was hoping to have our call on Sunday as agreed via email previously.
I think you and your wife are really great people, I love your business and the ideas behind it, and I hope you don't take this email in the wrong way. But, part of our signed initial agreement states that after 30 days of inaction by the client party, I will typically bill for the amount due and close the project down so I can focus my efforts on other work in the pipeline.
Please let me know if this is well-received. Remember, my intent here is to get this moving along productively. I am only interested in closing the project down as a last resort.
Thanks for your time."
