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.

Whilst helping out in a friends restaurant in Luxor, A lone female customer entered and sat down.... when I asked for her order, she asked where I came from ( I have a strong Northern English accent) ... I told her I was born in St Helens, but brought up near Warrington........ I was born in St Helens says she. What's your name ? my Mam might know you says I Marie ... says she..... this lady was my fathers best friend, I'd last seen her 13 yrs previously at his funeral and had no contact since that time.
