Ideally. I took a lap around the building looking at logos on the various posters. We're already ahead of the game compared to many projects :–)

A good idea. Don't forget the corresponding control experiment of presenting some random other logos. For instance, try googling the images of astronomical projects and you may be surprised at the hits. KPNO is a Christian radio station in Nebraska. SOAR is the Southern Ontario Animal Rescue. GRB seems to mean something very special in Zagreb.
