Abstract
To interpret the truth-value of future contingent events is of special importance for philosophy since the age of Aristotle. The subject is also interesting from the perspectives of linguistics and computer science. We compare two three-valued temporal logics for future contingents. We also suggest formalizing other types of useful three-valued temporal logics.
