Actually, it is there. You just can't see it. Any file/folder with a name that begins with "." will be invisible. This is standard operation for *nix. You can ues the Terminal or other OS X utilities to open or rename the folder, or use something such as TinkerTool to have the Finder show all folders/files, even invisible ones.
