Grandma doesn’t have to get run over by a reindeer to prove the existence of Santa Claus. Science provides all the clues we need to believe it possible for a man to travel around the world and visit the home of every child in a single night. 
 
Rev. Dr. Todd F. Eklof is a member of Rotary 21 and the minister of the Unitarian Universalist Church of Spokane. He's a native of San Francisco, California, but lived 25 years in Louisville, Kentucky before moving to Spokane with his spouse Peggy and daughter Cassidy. They also have a son, Julian, who still lives in Louisville. Todd began his ministerial career as a Southern Baptist but left the faith shortly after beginning his seminary studies and soon after became a Unitarian Universalist. In addition to a 16-year career in television news and corporate video production, he entered the Unitarian Universalist ministry in 1999, which frees him to draw inspiration from many traditional religious sources, as well as from humanism, philosophy, and, as we're about to find out, from science.
