Rails::Initializer.run do |config|  
config.active\_record.pluralize\_table\_names = false  
end  
hi if i write the above code in environment.rb then it makes my all  
table names singular instead of plural…or i can say i m removing  
pluralization for all models.

but i m not finding any solution…how can i make pluralization false  
for only one model…

i tried

class Book \< ActiveRecord::Base.pluralize\_table\_names = false

end

but its not working…  
i am waiting for answer…ASAP
