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.
Last week (monday), my husband stayed home from work. Out of the blue he decides to pull out his high school yearbook which he never does. 3 days later we learned of a high school friend who died suddenly at he age of 47. When we attended the wake my husband shared with me how he was just looking through our yearbook and reminisced about the photo of he and his recently deceased friend. The coincidence also is our friend sadly had been dead for several days before he was found which would have been the same time my husband was looking at their picture together in the yearbook.
