to be fair, people who are outside the organization and/or critical tend to say "Mormon" while those in the organization that I have spoken with, carefully say "Latter Day Saints" or LDS every time.

ps- sincere thanks to the LDS Temple letting me use their library and record search for many weeks, long ago

I used to be good like that, but since I've moved away from areas with high LDS populations, I've lapsed into just the word "Mormon" again. Probably because that's what I grew up with in a non-LDS region, so I don't automatically associate the word "Mormon" with bring critical of LDS.
