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.
While working on my high school reunion committee, an aunt passed away. One of the classmates on my contact list called me to ask if that was my aunt. I told her yes, and she related that we shared the same Gt. Grandfather. She was researching that genealogy line as was I so we got together to work on it. We had gone through high school together but were only acquaintances and did not know we were related. Over lunch at our first meeting, we learned that our first borns were named Leslie and that they were both born on the same date but a few years apart.
