hey Simon!

i was running twitter-to-sqlite user-timeline twitter.db for my private alt and ran into this error:

this looks awfully like #37 but it can't be, because i'm authed into my account and obviously i have perms to read my own account. wonder if there's any diagnostic methods i should apply here? just filing an issue for others to find while i investigate.

just confirmed that this error does not occur when i use my public main account. gets more interesting!
