Sad Story

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.
Sad story but incredible. Was passenger with brother and sister, driving to register my husband's death. They were talking and I drifted and was thinking 'Give me a sign you're still with me Dave' then, immediately, a lorry came towards us with the initials 'DGL' on the front. My husband's name was David George L. Behind it was a second lorry - 'DHL' - we used to joke it was our company: Dave and Helen Lawson! Then, going around the roundabout we were waiting for a fire engine and white 'Cancer Research UK' van. My husband was a fireman and died because of cancer.
