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 partner and I now live on the small island of Kos, Greece. We have been coming here for a number of years before retiring here and over a period of time became friends with a number of people who also holidayed here. One lady we became friendly with has become good friends of ours and is coming out to stay with us this year. Since becoming friends we have discussed various things and it turned out that she was born in the same maternity home in London as I was, albeit 6 or 7 years apart. She also remembers actually walking past the house I used to live in as a child and her mother bought her shoes from the same shoe shop as my mother used to.
