because there is no class BlahBlah, groovy thinks youn want to access a field that is not existent. in jsr-2 with enabled compiler checks you get something like the following message:

H:\testscripts\test.groovy: 79: The variable BlahBlah is undefined in the current scope
@ line 79, column 7.
BlahBlah.Foo()
^

1 Error
