How does nature punish a scientist ?.

Well, he probably isn't referring to a lizard being turned into a 100-
foot tall monster that devastates Geneva.

Usually, when a scientist makes a mistake, Nature punishes him by
making him look foolish; this happens when other people, who do their
experiments more carefully, get results which contradict what he
claims to have discovered.
