But we have computers! This would be final step of proposing a project; check that a negative, peer-reviewed version hasn't been published. Putting them in separate journals actually solves a lot of the complaints in this thread

The issue isn't that there would be a ton of research to wade through, the issue is that scientists whose research didn't pan now have a track record of failure. I can easily imagine a academic position hiring conversation going like "This guy has a higher failure to success ratio than average, and his successful projects aren't above average." EDIT: But perhaps I'm being too cynical (must be the New Year). Such a journal has been constructed. http://www.jnrbm.com/ http://www.jnrbm.com/ With luck, it will be wildly (un)successful :).
