I propose we change our logo to this one:

Or, if that one's too gay, maybe this one:

That Einstein one... kinda hurts to look at. It's not professional and doesn't lend itself well to a serious mission. The rainbow one isn't bad, but it's dated. Reminds me of several 1980's era tech companies. I wouldn't be adverse to changing the logo, but neither of the ones you've put forward would be acceptable.
