Abstract
This is the (no longer current) older version that appeared in Linguistics and Philosophy. A completely revised and expanded version is Chapter 6 of my 2012 book: Modals and Conditionals. Please consult the updated version if you are interested in facts, situations and their role in the semantics of counterfactuals and attitude ascriptions.
