Ford and Soma

"Oh, for Ford's sake, be quiet" (pg 90).  I feel that the Greater Being is Ford.  They refer to Ford as people in the world today would refer to God.  I feel that instead of calling God, God, they refer to him as Ford.

"...why you don't take soma when you have these dreadful ideas of yours" (pg 92).  A couple blogs ago I asked what soma is.  However, I think soma is like a type of drug of some sort to help people feel better.  I feel that it makes people feel happier when they're said, or even physically better when they are hurt.  Soma is like an addiction, such as alcohol or drug in the real world.  It seems like Lenina uses it very often!
