If someone thinks I am a "doofus" because I exercise the word "utilize", their opinion of me means nothing to me. The fact that someone would form an opinion about my intelligence because of the vocabulary I choose to employ, so be it. If the word is correct and is being used correctly, there is nothing more to be said.
