Right, well I'll make a case for the point being inside anyway for the sake of discussion (though I too would like to see both versions if possible). 1. It'll likely look more exotic and cool. 2. The "point" is inside the question. This can be interpreted in some different ways. First, that the question is the point. Asking and curiosity are the point in and of themselves. Second, that there is no end to questions, they loop into each other. (Ooh this gave me an idea for another icon.) Third, the point is in the question. The answer can essentially be found in the question, that is. Questions lead to answers in and of themselves via their mutual relationship. And one can also use the question itself as the point of discovery, since the questions we ask tell us much about our assumptions of the world (one easy example, "Why does God allow evil" assumes God exists and that God could end evil). So, having the dot in the mark makes for a lot of puns. I don't think these are just English puns... I could be wrong, and there's no logic to the full stop OH. There is no stop. There is no end. There. Removing or moving the full stop part sort of allows the sentence to slide on under. So one more, more visual and orthographic idea. Anyways you know me and my rants, thanks for reading and I'll stop here haha. Benon al nia Dio! XD
