Andrew's letter is just great... and writing it publicly (knowing it'll be leaked anyway) has also been great... and the contradiction between "spending time with family..." and then "just kidding, I was fired" fits the bill... Totally nailed it. The way to go (although I feel for him as I'm sure he's been working hard on making Groupon succeed...) but I never liked his methods though. Anyway, read the letter, it's short and really to the point.
