How will they tell the kids?

Chef is leaving South Park. Isaac Hayes quit, claiming the creators of the show are writing stuff that leans too much towards bigotry and religious intolerance, and he just can't take it anymore.

The creators, on the other hand, claim he's quitting only because they recently focused on his cult religion - Scientology. (I saw that episode... "Tom Cruise is in the closet and won't come out!".... funny as hell.)

I've been pondering how they'll handle Chef's departure. They'll probably have some aliens come to reclaim him...
