pluralization of resource names

#80

My first attempt to use Objective Resource involved a resource with a non-standard pluralization. I found the spot in the source that I had to deal with by searching for @"s" and finding the line where "s" is appended to the resource name. I just added a conditional statement to bypass the append when that particular resource name is used, but I'm sure that there's a smarter, more general way to do this. I'm also sure that I don't know what that is. The RoR source must contain a good solution for this.

I'd be happy to try to contribute to this project by making and submitting the needed changes to handle this kind of situation, but I'm new to git and open source in general. I'd really like to be able to use OR in my projects, so I'll try to get up to speed and make some contributions.

    I see the example code in which one overrides the getRemoteCollectionName method like so

    // handle pluralization 
+ (NSString *)getRemoteCollectionName {
    return @"people";
}

    Whoops! That's a great solution.
