ASCII STL is rendering incorrectly.

    I am trying to view an STL file which looks like:

    solid
    facet normal 0.0 0.0 0.0
    outer loop
    vertex -60.960000 -34.000000 0.000000
    vertex -60.960000 34.000000 0.000000
    vertex -54.864000 34.000000 0.078496
    end loop
    endfacet
    facet normal 0.0 0.0 0.0
    outer loop
    vertex -54.864000 34.000000 0.078496
    vertex -54.864000 -34.000000 0.201081
    vertex -60.960000 -34.000000 0.000000
    end loop
    endfacet
    facet normal 0.0 0.0 0.0
    outer loop
    vertex -60.960000 -45.000000 0.000000
    vertex -60.960000 -34.000000 0.000000
    vertex -54.864000 -34.000000 0.201081
    end loop
    endfacet

    ....

    facet normal 0.0 0.0 0.0
    outer loop
    vertex 60.960000 45.000000 0.000000
    vertex 60.960000 34.000000 0.000000
    vertex 54.864000 34.000000 0.066607
    end loop
    endfacet
    endsolid

    I know that the file has 120 facets, however Meshlab is rendering extra facets and is reporting that there are 180 facets.

      It seem quite strange.
      Please, could you submit this issue as a bug report,
      in the sourceforge tracker page of the meshlab?

      http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?group_id=149444&atid=774731

      and attach to the bug report the zipped stl file?

      thanks in advance
      P.
