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.
My wife & I went on holiday to Crete to a new holiday centre, anyway we got to meet and go around with a Cretian expat and his wife that looked after us (he knew the best places), but during one of the discussion we turned to our different jobs. He mentioned that he came to a UK University and ended up at Unilever (yes a big employer), to which I added that when my 'street uncle' worked at Walls he was part of the team that developed Soft scoop ice cream and he had gone to work at Unilever... he then had a puzzled look on his face and said "Whats his name ?" to which I said "Malcolm Tate - why ??" . To which he replied "I work for Malcom Tate !!!!"
be lucky
