Bizarre reunion

understandinguncertainty.org was produced by the Winton programme for the public understanding of risk based in the Statistical Laboratory in the University of Cambridge. The aim was to help improve the way that uncertainty and risk are discussed in society, and show how probability and statistics can be both useful and entertaining.
Many of the animations were produced using Flash and will no longer work.
It was the day after I had come home from hospital with my new-born 2nd child and was taking my older child to school when I heard a voice calling me across the playground. It was an old college friend whom I had lost touch with 17 yrs ago. What makes this so remarkable was that I had moved house twice from SW London where we knew each other and was now living in Kent - she had just returned from Australia and was relocating in England with her family and was renting a house 2 doors away from me in the same street in the same small village!
