If it were that simple I would have done it. Intensity varies with exposure plus the hot pixels also develop a colour fringe which changes colour based on the colour of the adjacent pixels. This means that unless carefully spotted they will be visible, especially on a 4MP sensor like mine. See the following crop from a EI 320 1/2 second exposure (EXIF info intact): http://members.ozemail.com.au/~geroc/P9095721.jpg Not a perfect example as it's none too sharp however you get the idea.
