>>> A lawyer working with the protesters says he's personally aware of a dozen people having been contacted in the northwestern U.S. and says the actual number is probably higher. Larry Hildes says it's been happening the last few months in Washington State, Oregon and Idaho. He says one person got a visit at work, after having already refused to answer questions. "They appear to be interested in actions around the tarsands and the Keystone XL pipeline," Hildes said in an interview. "It's always the same line: ‘We're not doing criminal investigations, you're not accused of any crime. But we're trying to learn more about the movement."' He's advised activists not to talk - and they mostly haven't. That lack of communication has made it a little complicated to figure out what, exactly, the FBI is looking for. The bureau hasn't offered too many clues. One agent left his name, number, and the following message in a voicemail for Helen Yost of the group Wild Idaho Rising Tide: "I work with the FBI. Could you give me a call back - I would appreciate it."
