I don't know for sure, but in my observations I get away with it often 
enough to lose my respect for the bug and then it kills me--BLAMMO!

Sometimes you don't see the FE notice until you've already started to zeal, 
and then it's already too late; you just have to hope either that you don't 
kill him before you can put some distance between you or that this will be 
one of the lucky times.
