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.
In 2004 I booked myself on a group holiday to Crete. I arranged to meet 2 other members of the group at Manchester airport (we had not known each other before this) to travel out together. Not only did one of those two people become my wife but travelling out on the same flight was someone who I had served in the TA with and hadn't seen in some 5 years.
