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.
Decided to drive about 12 miles north to do a bit of birdwatching Chelmarsh reservoir Shropshire).wore my Plymouth Argyle beany. Man (who I do not know)and boy getting out of car in carpark..boy left car door wide open so I haIled them to let them know. "Blimey" saId the man .."there are only two people I know in the West Midlands who support Plymouth Argyle..my wife..and a history teacher in her school called Dave Laverty". That's me !!!! Not an earthshattering coincidence...but a nice little one. After all the chances of the two of us going birdwatching, independently, and unknown to each other at this reservoir on a January Sunday afternoon...200 miles from Plymouth...was at least worth me telling my wife. She heard the radio story yesterday..and encouraged me to let you know..so..
