We use it as plural here as well.  This comes from our "old" database
experience.  Each row is a user so the table is Users.  For SQL Object, on
the other hand, the class is named in singular, because each instance of it
will be one user only.  This looks like the default for SQL Object as well
(add an "s" to the end of the class name when creating the table, to say it
is plural).

it's a mix of paradims :) 

I do the single because I'm more if an OOP guy :)
