Remember last week's puzzler?

The Colorful Henry Ford

This one is historic and automotive. Here we go.

As we all know, Henry Ford was falsely credited with inventing the automobile.

He was also falsely credited with inventing mass production. That guy had the best PR people, I swear.

He did do one thing that he is credited for. He created the Model T.

And he was responsible for the following statement, "You can get a Model T in any color you want, as long as it's black."

He did say that.

And the puzzler question is this.

Why did Henry Ford choose the color black?
