Here's the response that was returned:
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//IETF//DTD HTML 2.0//EN">
<html><head>
<title>417 Expectation Failed</title>
</head><body>
<h1>Expectation Failed</h1>
<p>The expectation given in the Expect request-header
field could not be met by this server.</p>
<p>The client sent<pre>
Expect: 100-continue
</pre>
but we only allow the 100-continue expectation.</p>
</body></html>
which apparently manifested itself sometime around Dec. 23rd according
to this site:

I added the additional PHP libcurl option call and it fixed the
problem.
On an aside, it appears that this is a Twitter server response and not
an API response?
Anyway, the problem is solved and I posted the solution in the event
that someone else may experience something similar.
Your quick response is always appreciated.
Cheers,
Pat
