Ford of the Day

is the letter 'T'

In Aldous Huxley's 'Brave New World' it replaces the Christian cross as a religous symbol (✝).

The first automobile to leave the assembly line was the Ford 'Model T' in 1908. Until 1927 Ford sold 15 Mio. of 'Tin Lizzie', as it was called amongst connoisseurs. When Huxley wrote 'Brave New World' in 1932, he imagined that Fordism has become the world religion and that people worship Henry Ford. Instead of 'Oh Lord' it's 'Oh Ford' in the year 632 A.F. (after Ford).
