Lost, but Found

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.

We visited Hunstanton in Norfolk,and stopped a couple to ask the way, but they were German tourists and did not know any directions.We then visited several other towns and ate sandwiches on a beach before ending up in Kings Lynn some hours later, and wanted to ask directions again.We saw a couple walking and wound down the car window,and the man said "we are still German and still do not know any directions!" we all had a good laugh.
