OCS and family friends

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.
I grew up in NM, very distant from extended family in Flint, MI. Shortly after graduating college I was entering Officer Candidate School for the Navy, having been enlisted and going to college. While speaking with my aunt in Flint, she mentioned that her best friend's son was also going to OCS. This friend of hers had been her maid of honor 30+ years before and was still in constant contact in Flint. When I reported to OCS he was in my class, and later also in my class and specific section of long term training over the next almost two years.
