Running into my Ex in 3 different cities

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.
Los Angeles, CA: Shortly after my breakup, I was driving home at about 2 a.m. and who happens to pull up alongside me at a red light? You guessed it. Granted there was no one else on the road.
San Fran, CA: About 3 months after my breakup, I took a trip to San Francisco and went to a Chinese restaurant in the heart of Chinatown. Who do you think was there? You guessed it again. The next day I was walking through a different part of the city of San Francisco. I turned the corner and bumped into you know who..my ex again!
Miami, FL: I was visiting a friend in Miami and upon my return flight was you know who... My ex was returning home from his Caribbean cruise on the same flight out of Miami.
It was at this point that I accepted the fact that God was truly putting this person back into my life for a reason. Here we are 20 years later in time and have maintained a solid friendship. I now believe that soulmates can actually be friends and not lovers.
