Why isn't a http URL logical? It is a logical address that happens to be
resolved by an application-specific combination of DNS lookup and Web
Server at message transfer time. Savas' prior example of using a URN to
address a service hosted on a P2P network is no different really.

I don't agree. All addresses are logical (Paul Downey has a good blog
post which alludes to this:
