So, the only reason to use c.l.p is if one wants to post anonymously,

I don't think that completely correct. Lots of people find GG's to be
more suited to their news reading pleasures,
I was referring to c.l.p on a nntp newsserver read by a newsreader
program. That was the context of the previous discussion. G.G. is
different, read through a browser (and only that, as far as I know).
i am one of them. I hate
to have an email just overflowing with mails all the time. Here in
GG's, i just come and go without worrying about deleting messages or
kill filters or whatever.
That is why I read python-list and other mailing lists (that are not
available as a g.g.) via gmane.
