Bond 'giving nuclear bad image'

This funny article from The Guardian, in which they quote British nuclear scientist David Phillips of the Royal Society of Chemistry as saying that the villains from the James Bond movies have largely contributed to giving nuclear a bad image. Well, after Chernobyl and Fukushima how about it really was nuclear that gave nuclear a bad image? At least in James Bond the villains always had the good taste of building their reactors deep underground inside a volcano lair. Their nuclear meltdowns did not actually threaten everyone else around them... I'll take the Bond villains over the idiots at Tepco any day.
