I too would be interested in understanding why people in the life sciences don't use URLs, because I think the advantage of using them is absolutely huge. Being able to "GET my meaning" [1] makes the Semantic web so easy to explain, so simple to read, so beautiful all in all that one really needs to have an amazing reason not to go that way.
