Sean Connery's Apples

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 and I went by car to see the movie Robin and Marian.
The movie uses an artistic framing device of 3 apples. At the start of the movie
3 ripe apples are shown on a window ledge.
At the end of the movie the apples are shown again. 2 - representing the deaths
of Robin and Marian are rotted.
We drove back from the movie and parked on the street at the first available
spot close to our apartment.
The car parked behind us had 3 apples on the dashboard.
