Guess Who?

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.
About 7 / 8 years ago my partner had a share of an "antique shop" in the "Stables," Camden Lock. One Saturday he had gone to the shop leaving me in bed. Whilst in a light sleep I had a dream that I was in the shop and Sean Connery came in. Later that morning my partner 'phones me and asks "Guess who came into the shop?" I asked whether it was some-one I knew or some-one famous (as we occassionally had had famous people at the shop.) He answered "famous," so I immediately said "Sean Connery." He was amazed, because I was right.
