I suppose the "too-late" business in Slothrop's cartoon-o-kinesis
doesn't exactly count -
that's the only counter-example I can think of.

Benny Profane using his hard-on as a divining rod (hmm, sort of prefiguring GR -
never thought about that before) - seem to be crowned with success
without exception
