1) Being involuntarily listed in the JOURNAL OF IRREPRODUCEABLE RESULTS (a satiric magazine)
2) Not being able to get your findings published in a field-specific scientific periodical [ a magazine with fuzzy pictures & small print] which is how researchers communicate their research to others in their field.
3)Watching their grant money dry up. (see #2 above)
4)Collecting unemployment & passing the afternoons answering kids' science questions on Yahoo answers.
