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.
1t involves a Tudor mansion in Essex , the home of the lords Petre since the time of Elizabeth 1st .During the last few years ,in the course of following through some family history i have discovered that one of the Digges family was a priest there dUring the 18th century , later on (50years )found that one of the Digges wives had performed as an actress there coming down from London to give a special performance . Around the same period, still the late 18th century Thomas Digges of Virginia , a spy for George Washington makes clear that his mother, an Attwood had grown up in the house. Finally in the 1970's I ,Norma Digges took sixth formers there to concerts . None of the Digges family members lived any where near the property, although I did live in Essex. Ihave only recently connected up these events . What do you think are the odds?
