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.

I was round a friends house and we were looking for cars in Autotrader in 1987, (pre internet days) soon we got on to looking for personal number plates, I jokingly said I would like to get the number plate LJH 666 to match my initials + the number of the beast, on the way home I had a Triumph 2000 pull out in front of me - Its number plate was LJH 666L
