Bhunte, good to see you back in Sajha, and thank you for starting this thread.  I became an occasional silent reader of Sajha in early 2002.  During one of my occasional visits later in the same year, I came across Paramendra's thread describing his experience after his arrival in the US for the first time.  After enjoying reading that, I also became tempted to write but I had to register in Sajha before I could do so.  I decided to have a rather "thet" Nepali nickname, chose "Chipledhunga", created a matching email account, and made my "formal" entry into Sajha.  I am not sure if my first writing was a response to Paramendra's thread, or my own thread "Nepal Farkinda kaa Samjhanaharu" that described my experience of my first trip to Nepal after coming to the US.  Anyways, there were a lot of threads worth reading and I was also getting a pretty good response on the very first thread I created.  Needless to say, I became a Sajha addict very soon.  The folks I remember from then include Deep, Sitara, Dumbass, Oys, Rusty, Isolated Freak, Suna, Trikal, Jira, Najar, Arnico, Simplegal, Nepe, Kalanki etc.  I was most active during the 2002-2004 era.  These days I am a semi-regular silent reader plus Chautarian.  Sajha has definitely undergone a lot of changes in the last eight years. 

Rekha, you sound kinda familiar too.  I am shooting you an email right now to confirm :)
