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.
In 1981 I met a man at an International event. We connected and began a relationship. When he visited my home he remarked on the unusual old teaset on my dresser which I had purchased many years before from junk shop. It was only half of the original set (that was all the shop had). He had the other half which he had inherited from an old relative. Our homes then were 40 miles apart. In addition.., he was born in 'The Woodman' pub which his parents ran.., (my married name).., and the previous owner of the pub was called Morgan.., (my maiden name).. A perfect match we thought. But no.. after 3 years I couldn't stand the sight of him... Jenny Morgan
