Ha ha! Lion broke into your chicken coop, ate all your chickens WITHOUT ASKING, and then left before you could scold it.
Seriously, this seems to be the new paradigm for App Store OS installations -- one click and you've implicitly agreed to everything. And they are self-deleting. You either have to catch the download at the right point in the process to extract the heart of gold for later use, or you have to re-launch the App Store with control (or is it option?) held down, whereupon it will allow you to re-download the Lion you've already bought. I don't remember exactly, but if you Google it you should find this process described in a lot of places.
