prophetic voice

As of the 23rd May 2022 this website is archived and will receive no further updates.

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.

Amazing, but entirely trivial.........A few weeks ago, I was engrossed in a crossword. The television was on, Buffy The Vampire Slayer, but my daughter had left the room so no-one was watching. I was on my own. The solution to a clue appeared to be a word I rarely come across "barbels" and I was about to look up the spelling when a disembodied voice called out "barbels". It was Buffy's voice.....she was in a gym and was about to use the equipment. How's that for a co-incidence?
