What does a black ribbon mean?

If you hover your mouse it says "Remembering September 11th".

"A black ribbon is a symbol of remembrance or mourning. Wearing or displaying a black ribbon has been used for POW/MIA remembrance, mourning tragedies, or as a political statement." From Wikipedia.

Seems pretty legit, they've not posted a Doodle, presumably because a "Doodle" implies Fun. What's "fun" about September 11th?

I guess the tiny little black ribbon at the bottom of the page represents their reluctant acknowledgement of 9/11’s existence.

But let some weirdo homo artist celebrate their 30th birthday and the entire google logo is given a makeover.
