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.
Every year my family go on holiday to Sarasota, a quiet beach resort in Florida. There are many hotels around but we always stay in the same one. I worked for Marks and Spencer for many years and Suzanne was one of the people I worked with, she left some years before I did and we didn't keep in touch. Our hotel room had a balcony. One morning when I was on our balcony our neighbours came out onto theirs - you've guessed it, it was Suzanne and her family.
