LOL.   Go figure!  I don't think they thought that one through very well.   ;-)

Well, I am pleased to say that the problem is fixed.  Third time is
indeed a charm.  The ISP mistakenly filtered port 80.  It was
interesting to see what this filtering looked like -- I was surprised
that 2/3 of the handshake was allowed to happen.

Thank you everybody for the suggestions.  I really appreciate everyone's help!
