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.
About 12 years ago I got together with my partner Christina, whose birthday is 6 March, and introduced her to my two best gay friends in Winchester. Turned out one of them had the same March birthday as Christina, whilst it turned out her partner shared my birth date of 27 May. We're all born several years apart but it still seems an odd coincidence and means we can never forget one another's birthdays.
