.not(n) only works when n is a filter, like .not(".absolute") or
.not(":visible")... it can not be used to test arbitrary expressions.

Why doesn't this work:
$('a').not('li a').click( function() {
$(this).remove();
return false;
});
On this code:
<a href="">this is a link</a>
<br /><br />
<li><a href="">a link inside an li tag</a></li>
<li><a href="">and another</a></li>
<br /><br />
<a href="">and finally another link at the bottom</a>
It correctly removes the bottom and top links, but it also removes the two
links found within LI tags, which from the way I read the API it should
not.

Untested:
$("a").filter(function() { return !$(this).parents().is("ul "); })
Requires 1.1
