If you don't have some: http://www.webtender.com/db/ingred/71

Not having such ambitious plans I just had some Macallan and then built your table:

Connected to:
Oracle Database 10g Enterprise Edition Release 10.1.0.3.0 - Production With the Partitioning, OLAP and Data Mining options

SQL> create table "2004" (

   2 testcol varchar2(20));

Table created.

SQL> desc 2004
ERROR:
ORA-00931: missing identifier

SQL> desc "2004"

  Name                                      Null?    Type
  ----------------------------------------- -------- ------------------
  TESTCOL                                            VARCHAR2(20)

SQL> You'll have to make a slight modification to your SQL statement to get it to work.
