I could be wrong, but I do not believe so.  The
above would evaluate as _true_ 100% of the
time because irregardless of success of the query,
$result is getting a value.  It's just like doing:

$i = "joe";
if( $i = "bob" ) {
  // this will always run.

}

Again, I could be wrong but don't think I am.
