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.
Coincidence No. 2. In the 1970s I was a keen birder, and would regularly meet with a friend at a National Nature Reserve at Stodmarsh in Kent - some 100km from our homes. I lost touch with him and didn't visit Stodmarsh for approximately 15 years. When at a conference nearby in 1994, I decided to visit the place again. I parked in the carpark in which another man had just parked. It was of course my friend of 15 years previously, visiting the reserve for the first time since our last meeting there.
