Towelie appears among the residents of South Park at the town meeting.
Flashback scenes that did NOT take place in South Park
Cartman/Trapper Keeper devouring everything in sight - Cheyenne Mountain
The Geldon breathing fire onto everyone in the Drew Carey Show studio - Los Angeles
"Love is a Battlefield" was used once before, by Mr. Mackey, when he lost his house after being accused of giving marijuana to minors n "Ike's Wee Wee."
Interesting that the Native Americans would call the white man "round eyes," as they, too, have round eyes.
You had me at "free blanket." - Paraphrase of "You had me at 'Hello,'" which is from 1996's Jerry Maguire
Native Americans have spirit journeys. White Americans have inward journeys.
SARS - Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome, similar to a cold, but can be deadly. No US fatalities so far, but it has killed over 140 in China and Toronto. And now, a note from a man from Hong Kong and living in Toronto, a reader named Keith Hui.

Now that SARS had been touched upon and that being pretty close to me (being from HK and living in Toronto and having seen SARS in the news for two months straight) I feel I am qualified to say something.
The incubation period is up to 10 days, so any quarantine implemented usually run for 10 days. So if South Park had that outbreak of "epic proportion", it must be at least a couple weeks after the "free blankets" are handed out. And why no health care personnels in sight?
Placing an entire community under quarantine finally happened after 707 airs, in Taiwan. Before that, Hong Kong once placed an entire apartment building under quarantine.
The soup, Dayquil and Sprite only help you feel well enough so your body can recover on its own, but AFAIK the major damage SARS causes are from the body destroying its own lungs after being provoked too much by the virus. So this won't work. That said, I really think Sprite should be left out of the formula. Coke works better. :-) And I know I am looking at a role reversal here.
I can't help but to relate the soup and stuff to the dozen Chinese herb formulas I saw these days to "prevent" SARS. They both sound bogus to me.
And if PRT got SARS by sharing a cup with the Chinese guys, and South Park got SARS from infected blankets, why Stan didn't catch it as he had been close to Randy who is infected?
Keep it up.

Jon Brewer tells me the following about Aemrican Indians:

In reality, Indians couldn't build a casino in South Park. Indian casinos can only be built on reservation land.
A quick FAQ about the epicanthic fold: Newborns of all races have it, but it disappears soon most of the time. Biologically, this is called neoteny. In the Americas, only Eskimos have it.
Typical terms for the white man either simply mean "white" or imply a type of parasitic relationship.
There actually is a variety of Indian humor, generally better than South Park's version of it. The only animal commonly mentioned around where I grew up was spiders.
