Anyone see the Google tribute to Edward Gorey today?

I just saw it at Google.ca (a few minutes before midnight - it appears to be gone now at both Google.ca and Google.com) Gorey would have been 88 on Feb. 22.

Saw it this morning. Always loved his animated intro to Mystery! on PBS.

I keep forgetting the "doodles" are all archived here: http://www.google.com/doodles/finder/2013/All%20doodles

And I missed the "Last Day of the Canadian Penny"!!! (Feb 4)

The Copernicus one is pretty cool. And the Valentine's/George Ferris birthday one is quite something (press the button!). I rarely see these as I just use the search bar in Safari.
