     *  e.g., like `$chrisburton = new twitter_user( $twitter_array );`
     * it simply converts $twitter_array to an object and stores it in $this->t.
     * see the __get() method to see how you retrieve values.
     *
     * @param array $twitter_info   the info you got from twitter.

            // beyond just ['auth'], but that's up to you.
            
            // converting the array into an object 
            //  makes it easier to access the values via our __get() method.
            // (using the json_* functions is an ugly hack, but works well.)
##  this works with PHP version 5.4.
##  v.5.3 does not support the json_encode flags used here (you can remove them).
##  v.5.2 does not support json_last_error (you can remove the error check and hope for the best.)
##  see comments on|around lines 51-62 below for alternate code if you need 5.2+ compatibility
##  (however, UPGRADING to 5.4+ is the recommended solution).

##  PHP 5.3 compatability:
##  comment out the following line
                       ,JSON_BIGINT_AS_STRING|JSON_UNESCAPED_UNICODE 
                    ) 
                );
            // make sure there were no errors
##  PHP 5.2 compatability:
##  comment out the following line
            if( json_last_error() === JSON_ERROR_NONE ){
##  PHP 5.2 compatability:
##  un-comment the following line
//          if( true ){
                // all good.
