Christmas present coincidence

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 Christmas 2001 and my sister lived in London and I lived in Tenby (south west Wales). She had done all her Christmas shopping in London and myself in Tenby. Lo and behold we'd bought eachother exactly the same top! Of all the clothes in all the shops in the world!!
