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.
This happened to an unrelated military friend and myself in 1977. My buddy not having a phone went to his mother`s house to call me out of the blue. We had had no plans beforehand. Thinking about this person I not having a phone went to my sister`s house to call him. After saying my hello`s etc. I went to the rotary phone to call my friend. Before any ring I picked up the receiver to start dialing and my friend was on the line.
