    The author deals with a stationary process \((X_p)_{p\in\mathbb{Z}}\) taking values in a finite alphabet, and an event \(B\) which is measurable with respect to the \(\sigma\)-algebra \(\sigma(X_p, p\in\mathbb{Z})\). Observing a finite number of coordinates of the process \(X_{-n}\), \(X_{-n+1},\dots, X_{m-1}, X_m\) (where \(m\) and \(n\) are positive integers), the author discusses whether the two-parameter martingale \(\mathbb{E}[1_B\mid X_{-n},X_{-n+ 1},\dots\), \(X_{m-1}, X_n]\) converges almost surely to \(1_B\) as \(n\) and \(m\) go to infinity.
