Thanks Rex, I realize these symbols probably came from the digital age, however which is more important (0 or 1) is probably up for debate. Most people probably think the number 1 is more important than zero, however compare 1 to 1 with a lot of zeros after it! Especially in dollars. And then there are Roman numerals! Very limiting. Anyway I thought the circle would indicate on (or open). So much for thought.
