The U-shaped street in Columbia was supposed to be named Satin Wood Drive, based on an obscure poem by a whimsical poet. But the devil, it turns out, was in the details.

About 30 years ago, somewhere between the developer's plans and the county's official map, a misplaced letter doomed the residents of Satan Wood Drive.

"You almost feel ostracized, like you're the black sheep of the village," said Jamie Aycock, 31, an electrical engineer who lives on the block in Hickory Ridge Village. "Sometimes they look at me like I'm a devil worshipper."

I'm moving! That is especially hilarious coming out of Columbia. That joint is a total planned community.

If they do succeed in getting the street name changed, I want the old sign.

I wonder if they object to hockey player names too?

I wonder if anyone on that street has the number 666....
