Hong Kong Meeting

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 in Hong Kong for a holiday and started talking to a woman in the hotel laundry. I discovered that not only did she live in the same city as I do, Brisbane, Australia, but about 30 years earlier, her Manager at work was the wife of my husbands best friend. They both worked in a small branch of a large chain of department stores. Jeanette
