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 visiting a friend in Bristol and we went for a day trip mountain biking in South Wales at Afan Argoed. As we sat outside the cafe at lunchtime, we got talking to a fellow visitor. We told him we had come up from Bristol for the day. "I used to live there" he said, "which part?" My friend told him (I forget the name of the place). "Really? That's where I lived. Which street?". You can see where this is going...this totally random bloke used to live in the exact same house we'd left that morning.
