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.

My husband was talking to his boss about how Northerners and Southerners aren't supposed to get on, etc, and mentioned that Bristolians don't much like the Welsh, as they think they take their jobs, etc. He mentioned that my cousin, a Bristol girl, had married a Welsh dentist and the couple lived in Devon. The boss said he knew a Bristol girl who had married a Welsh dentist in Devon. My husband thought he was pulling his leg. Turns out my cousin was very close friends with my husband's boss's sister-in-law!
