PATCH: minor typo cleanup of pod/ directory
These are all in the pod/ directory, and only the first is a code fix. There was also a single lingering ISO 8859-1 encoding that missed the UTF-8 upconvert. The rest are cleanups for typos, some of which seem to have been around for a rather long time: spelling errors, incorrect possessives, and extra, missing, or duplicated words. If you actually read through, I bet you'll realize what sparked this. :) --tom Signed-off-by: Abigail <abigail@abigail.be>
