[edit] Hoax?
The technique described here seems to be a hoax. There is a method of glacier grafting in Pakistan, but it was developed in the 90ties by the retired engineer Chewang Norphel and involves thin metal pipes and a system of dams. See for example:

- Chewang Norphel, Biography at Rainwaterharvesting.org
Would be good to write a better version of this article ... --Jo (talk) 20:49, 9 May 2008 (UTC)
