Match node() with exception

This is not working for me:

<xsl:apply-templates select="node()[not(/SchemaVersion)]"/>

I have the node "SchemaVersion" which I care to NOT display.  What am I
doing wrong?

Originally, I was using a for-each loop to get through all of the child
elements, but I was unable to exclude the above node in this for-each so I
thought I would try it the ~more correct way~.
