Default Re: factual conditional

Hi Mariner
.
While I agree that conditionals can be and are mixed depending on circumstances, etc., I'd be interested in knowing (1) what you think of the three examples you gave in your last post and (2) what you think the "justification" for the mixed conditional in each case might have been.
.
I'll be happy to give you my opinion about the 3 sentences, but I'd like to know yours first. (After all, you were the one who chose to post them).
