Firth is not all that common a name, although
Mike (Michael) certainly is (#1 Social Security baby name for
over 30 years).
There are even two Mike Firth's in Dallas, the other being an
auto mechanic.
I have been contacted by people sharing my name for various reasons, usually because we share an interest like glass. Recently, when I went looking for my own name on the Internet, so I could correct any remaining links to my glassblowing web site. In the process, I came across a few links to Mike Firth around the world, so I decided to make this links page.
Even Dr. Seuss wrote to Mike Firth (possibly my father, I am checking). You will have to Ctrl-F or otherwise Find "Mike Firth" in several places in this long document. (Since deleted)

This one only has Mike Firth as a band member, but the site is the alumni of the high school at Clark Air Force Base, the Philippines, now closed. Exact page with Mike Firth

Well, you must be a nice bloke!!
thanks for the friendly hello. You were very sensible stopping
your licence! It is hard work and increasingly regulated, with
little return!
Thanks for your interest.

This high powered math Mike Firth has a number references like this, but I can't get a look at the document because the page is bad. But I really want to know what lazy functions are! Colin Runciman, Ian Toyn, and Mike Firth. An incremental, exploratory and transformational environment for the lazy functional programming. Journal of Functional Programming, 3(1):93-115, January 1993.
This Mike Firth is a Morris Dancer in England, contact for at least two groups. I have actually done Morris Dancing, at Berea College's Christmas Country Dance School in the mid-60's, an event that is still going on. Berea student crafts are very nice.
