  1. So of course, I googled him: “Ome Daiber – A general unit of measure used to indicate amount of leather seal in container, rate of exchange, quantity of liquid left in canteen, fuel remaining for stove, etc. Term derived from Ome Sven Daiber of Norway, first hiker to suffer moleskin {see separate entry}. Daiber also claimed the first ascent of the Fluegelhorn.” (from http://www.headbaby.com/glossary.htm ). Looks like he was big in NW Mountain Rescue work, too. He was a JIRP guy?

  2. Yep, did you find the “Tom Horbein has chunks of Ome Daiber’s fingers in his basement?” (Ome built the house and apparently there was an issue with a table saw..)
