My earlier statement, "I don't have a column name" is incorrect.
The statement: rename_column(:csvs, :created, :accessed) provided the table_name "cvs" as symbol, the old_name "created" as a symbol, and the new_name. So I don't have a clue as to what's wrong. All the code is on http://www.pastie.org/343735, as I mentioned before.
