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.

A few years ago I was channel surfing and happened to notice several different movies on that night all had Max Von Sydow in them. It was so many that it became strange and I began wondering if perhaps he had died . The next day I was telling a friend and asked if he had died and my friend said not that he knew of. That night and for several nights later the same thing kept happening. Even random tv shows I would click on and there would be Max. So I decided to give tv a rest and started reading a book I had special ordered called The Tale Of Crow and Sparrow. This book was a folk tale from India that supposedly explained why there were untouchables in the Indian Caste System. It was not something just anyone would read. As I am reading along the author said, " And in the words of the famous folklorist Carl Von Sydow, father of the well known actor Max Von Sydow.......... I threw the book across the room.
