Description

increasingly getting http 504 errors from FRED, but these take a very long time to return
would be nice if we could specify a timeout, that could be used in the `fr <- read.csv(curl::curl(URL), na.strings = ".")` call
may be useful for other sources, but FRED is the problem child right now
