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.
Whilst on a weekend break in Berlin with friends I meet a couple from Manchester, we became good friends and discovered we would both be in Ibiza at the same time later that year, so we exchange numbers and said we would meet up in Ibiza. Two months later off I went to Ibiza. On the first day I met a girl from Newcastle and we went everywhere together (I miss her). On the third night, I told my new Geordie friend I'd arranged to meet the Manchester couple in a club and she said she would come with me. So off we went to meet them and we were talking when my Geordie friend ran off and starting hugging some couple - yep, the Manchester couple. They had meet in Liverpool years before and were close friends who had lost touch. Small world!
