I tried my best but
couldn’t keep it short. For those of you who don’t have enough time to go
through the whole content but are interested in this thread please go through
the first two and the last paragraphs.

The whole idea of this
thread is to create a platform for the innovators, dreamers, doers, workaholics,
visionaries, entrepreneurs, mavericks, jack of all masters of none, and the
likes among ourselves who think about doing
something. And this something could be helping kids go to school in Nepal
to brainstorming ways to solve some of our problems – like waste management, traffic
management etc.

The main objective of
this thread is to share ideas and experiences
(professional, academic or indigenous) to devise plans to achieve the above
mentioned goals. It doesn’t
necessarily have to be in Nepal, we can use
our time and brain to do good anywhere in this planet. (This might be little
too much for some of you, but I believe that one shouldn’t hesitate to dream
big as long as one realizes the ground reality and the efforts needed to
achieve that big dream).

I am sure that some of you
must be thinking who the hell I am or why not share my own ideas first before
asking for others and some of you will try to track my IP address for my location. So
I will save your time to do something productive – may be contribute to this
thread to the best you can – instead of hunting me down. Here’s little bit about
me: I work in the environmental field – hazardous waste management, energy
audits, green house gas inventory etc. in Northern California for little over
two years now. No, I am not a DV winner, neither have a green card. I am still in
student status (cap-gap extension, waiting for USCIS’ decision on H1B) as this
seems to be one of the major concerns among us.

I have been visiting
sajha.com for at least three years now but never posted a comment to any
thread, despite my knowledge about the subject. There were few instances when I
so badly wanted to register to sajha.com to reply few threads but never did so.
I am sure many of you visit sajha.com like I did. And for those of you who just
visit sajha but don’t have an account, here’s my email: sculptor_a1(at)yahoo.com.

Being the originator of
this thread, I believe I should be able to moderate it (meaning delete the ones
that are off-the-track). Anyways, all smart ass comments and suggestions are
welcome including some genuine ones. I don’t want to drop the names here but I
am expecting some genuine remarks from some of you. And for those of you who
know somebody who talked or talks about changing the world but doesn’t visit
sajha.com, could you please forward him/her the link to this thread?
