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 in the middle of taking note of a funny 'lost in translation' chinese/japanese phrase similar to 'wong fook hing book store' which has been posted online many times online. The one I had found was 'tong poo' by the yellow magic orchestra. At that exact moment tim vine's girlfriend in 'not going out ' spoke mock chinese to lee mack in the scene where he is unconcious,which essentially is the sam reason to find mirth in the mistaken english in the foreign phrases.
