That's just what NASA wants you to believe.  The North Pole doesn't exist.  Something about the firmament.

Okay, what is all this business about Santa controlling the flow of time?  Is this something like the plot of It: Welcome to Derry with Santa not experiencing time in a forward linear fashion?  How does this involve the taking of all pennies?

I assumed some sort of relativity engine or wormholes were involved.  That doesn't example where the penny comes into play.

Wasn't that magic dust an ingredient in Coca-Cola many years ago?

Where do you think Coca Cola got the idea from?

kphoger

And why do you think Santa Claus starred in so many Coca-Cola commercials over the years?

And how do you think he manages to get all the deliveries around the whole world done in a single night with no sleep?

It wasn't a question.

I'd think that 67 inches is more of an exclamation than a question.
