Nextdoor neighbour

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.
When I was 2 yrs old, Henriette aged 4 lived nextdoor. They moved at the end of that year to a different town, and neither she or her family had any further contact with my family. Thirty years later I got a job at a teachers' training college about 1500 km from where we had lived as neighbours. To my surprise my immediate boss turned out to be Henriette!
