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 was traveling in Australia and sharing a house with two local women. I was walking in the town with one of my housemates when she stopped and called out a friend who was passing. She intorduced me to Matt, who was also English and had recently vacated the room that I now occupied. On speaking to Matt, whom I had never met before, I discovered that he not only came from the same city as me in the UK (Southampton) but that we had also, both had a relationship with the same woman (Helen) in the UK.
