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.

On business in Bristol, car parked in multi storey. I went to next morning to collect vehicle, un-locked boot, and found another persons luggage and various other unfamiliar items. I checked registration number, and found it to be just one number different to mine (letters exactly as mine) my business colleague's registration was the next in sequence. in other words this car was the number between mine and my work friend. also the key worked for wrong car, and it was parked exactly where mine was, (ie row and number) but on a different floor level. All three cars were supplied by a garage in Kettering. Coincidence or......?
