One of the things debunking the whole liberal attack on Lott was the fact that at least one of his interview subjects has stepped forward to say that yes, he was interviewed by Lott.

Not exactly. He doesn't say he was interviewed by Lott. Lott didn't interview anyone; he says he paid college students to telephone people and interview them. This person says that he remembers getting a phone call and participating in a survey about gun use, and he thinks it was probably Lott's survey. Of course, this person also happens to be an NRA board member and a gun rights activist.
It's strange that you're willing to pass that off as conclusive proof that Lott is telling the truth. Let's put it this way - if Sarah Brady was accused of lying about something, and the only "witness" who stepped forward to corroborate her story was the president of a local Million Mom March chapter, what would you be saying about the credibility of that defense?
It is awfully strange that Lott did a major survey, used cash to pay the students doing the survey for him, can't remember the name of any of those students, and doesn't have a single scrap of paper (even a list of the questions) left from the survey.
