Clearing screen when using Vi keybindings on Bash command-line

Hi,

I recently switched to using Vi keybindings in bash shell as described here http://vim.wikia.com/wiki/Use_vi_shortcuts_in_terminal. It's great, except that ^L (Ctrl + l) does not clear screen any more. I tried the two options mentioned in the link but neither of them works. I also tried adding the line

alias ^L='clear'

in my .bashrc but that didn't work. Can someone suggest what else I can do?

Thanks!
