Their home, on the edge of a national forest, does appear a good deal more comfortable than any of the offices at Waste Management. An entire basement wall looks like the side of a boxcar and opens into a well-stocked wine cellar. Certainly, money doesn't seem to be an important factor in his career decisions. What's more, the stuffy customs of corporate life tend to go out the window at a company in times of trouble. And Mr. Miller's irreverence and candor are suited to that looser atmosphere.
All questions are welcome.
