Wonder if Team 504 has anything to do with ERROR 504, which is a Gateway Timeout?

A server (not necessarily a Web server) is acting as a gateway or proxy to fulfil the request by the client (e.g. your Web browser or my CheckUpDown robot) to access the requested URL. This server did not receive a timely response from an upstream server it accessed to deal with your HTTP request.

This usually means that the upstream server is down (no response to the gateway/proxy), rather than that the upstream server and the gateway/proxy do not agree on the protocol for exchanging data.

I prefer a definition that turned up a little lower in the Google 
search, from http://www2.bc.edu/~paleo/final/durb.html

"Durb is the closest thing 504 has to an alcoholic."

Of course, what a "Team 504" is, I have no idea.  Anyone more familiar 
with BC?  (Boston College, probably)
