New Google Doodle of March 5 2015

For many parts of the world, the Google Doodle of this Thursday will be Momofuku Ando’s 105th Birthday.  Or it is Momofuku Ando’s 105th Birthday for Google Japan now.  Who is Momofuku Ando?  He is the inventor of instant noodles and Cup Noodles.  March 5, 2015 is his 105th Birthday.

Google Doodles' Momofuku Ando’s 105th Birthday page has a short animation of this doodle and a short story about how Mr. Ando invented instant noodles.

I have a question to ask Google.  Why Americans will be able to see doodle of Momofuku Ando’s 105th Birthday but not us, Canadians?  We don't eat instant noodles or Cup Noodles?

For Canadians and some other people on the Earth, we will have doodle of Gerardus Mercator’s 503rd Birthday tomorrow (March 5).  This is a sneak peek of it.  http://www.google.com/doodles/gerardus-mercators-503rd-birthday 

Will we have different doodle animation versions of Gerardus Mercator’s 503rd Birthday?  We shall see.

I checked Google USA homepage today but it didn't have doodle of Momofuku Ando’s 105th Birthday.  How come?

Please look at "This Doodle's Reach" shown at Momofuku Ando’s 105th Birthday page yesterday.  Clearly, this doodle was not only for Japan.  So, this doodle was only shown within March 5, 2015 of Japan time?
