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.

1971 I worked on a construction project in Algeria, near the small coastal town of Arzew. My accomadation (one room) was in the redundent ( ) used long ago by the French navy. 1979 I was employed on the construction of a muli story office block in Bahrain. I shared my company apartment with a fellow foreman, who I had never met before and who, in the mid seventies had also worked in Algeria, in Arzew, his office was my old room. Totaly different companies, different continents, eight years apart.
