I think it's a bad name for a bioterrorism exercise. It's a very obvious name for an exercise that simulated a Cat 5 hurricane that ran from Boston down to Wilmington, NC, and came as far inland as...oh, Raleigh, NC.
But to get "satanic storm" out of "atlantic storm" you'd have to drop too many letters and reuse some critical ones--specifically the big S. Most people aren't going to see it, and that's as it should be--it's not there.
It's like those folks who think George Bush is the Antichrist because if you play weird numerology games with his last name or use the original Germanic spelling of Busche, you can get 666 out of his name. Besides, George Bush isn't the Antichrist. Ronald Reagan is the Antichrist--you can get 666 out of Ronald Wilson Reagan without fucking with it--and the Bush Administration contains the Four Horsemen: Bush is the horseman of conquest, Rumsfeld the horseman of war, Michael Brown the horseman of famine and Cheney the horseman of death.
How we can know the Bush Administration is the Four Horsemen: Look very closely at Revelation 6:5-6...
And when he had opened the third seal, I heard the third beast say, Come and see. And I beheld, and lo a black horse; and he that sat on him had a pair of balances in his hand. And I heard a voice in the midst of the four beasts say, A measure of wheat for a penny, and three measures of barley for a penny; and see thou hurt not the oil and the wine.
(Some translations of this say "a quart of wheat for a day's pay, and three quarts of barley for a day's pay--the minimum wage being substantially lower in Biblical times than it is now, either way works...except for this "quart" thing, because the concept of the quart, which is one-fourth of a gallon, came about in modern times.)
Think back to the speech Bush gave immediately before he invaded Iraq. In part of it he spoke "directly to the Iraqi people" in English. The first thing he told them was to not damage the oil wells. In other words, see thou hurt not the oil.
Combine that with the administration's obvious acceptance of price-gouging (go look at a gas pump) and Rev. 6:5-6 makes perfect sense.
