Can dice rolled on tables explode?

[I rather doubt that they can, but I can't seem to find anywhere where the rules definitely say that they can't. And since dice definitely explode everywhere else, I'm sure that someone will assume they do . . . the instant that a given table result would be improved by an exploding die. Wink ]

First sentence under Aces in the Game Rules section <italics added>...

"All Trait tests and damage rolls in Savage Worlds are open-ended."

Those are the only rolls that Ace (explode or are open-ended); damage and Traits (Attributes and Skills). So no table rolls, running dice, nothing else that isn't one of those two.
