I haven't seen much information posted about how to use normals in a
polygon.  The only coordinates I've seen given to a normal were just
variations of the same three numbers: (0, 4096, 0).  For a regular
square polygon, where the center is at (0, 0, 0), and the sides are ten
units long, what would be the coordinates of the normal?
