Surprising event
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.
I was working in London, where I lived, in South London. My Father, who I saw regularly, was also working and lived in north-east London, in Walthamstow. I had to go and pick some gig tickets up from the Star Green ticket office at Oxford Circus (way before t'internet) so got off the tube and bought said ticket, then went down in to the station again. I bashed full on in to a large human body as I was rushing along, as were they. We both looked around to say sorry and... it was my Dad. Now that freaked me out, in an amused way!
