At Extro3 Eric Drexler held a speech where he discussed how to be "cautious and conservative". He showed that cryonics was the cautious and conservative thing to do, and that much of nanotechnology is conservative. So maybe this is the real explanation: this list is filled with cautious and conservative people, while the incautious radicals are out there... :-)
