I don't think they've ever done a Memorial Day logo.

I've been browsing my collection of google logos and can't find one.

Logos here

They've never done a logo for Memorial Day or Veteran's Day.

Most of their logos are celebratory. Memorial Day is not a celebration. Sure... we all have our barbecues and beer with family and friends, but this isn't the point of the holiday, I believe.

Over this?  I don't think so....google works to well to boycott for something as simple as this.

Now....if I where a person of conviction I'd boycott over their caving into chinese censorship demands or them systematically removing conservative bloggers from their servers......

but alas I really don't care all that much.
