I'm certainly not defending anyone's right or ability to SPAM, but if I
wanted to post a question asking how others on the list have handled a
particularly difficult manager, SME, or co-worker (I've seen all of these
posted during my time on techwrl) and I knew that these people read the list
I'd want to be able to post anonymous.
Job searches and asking for more information about posted jobs are a couple
of additional reasons why I'd like to have the capability to post
anonymously.
None are currently necessary (of course ;-{), but ... who knows what the
future holds?
