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.
It was probably 1980, and we went for the day to Southend. The first time we had ever been there.
A week or so later, a new colleague at work in North London asked if I had been to Southend on a specific date. She knew I had as she had taken at random a photo of the road running along the sea front, and captured our car driving toward her at that very moment. The registration number was clearly visible!
