How would I calculate the normals of triangles where a vertex may lay on the
edge of a triangle but not be at a corner? This ASCII art should clear up
the question:

___________
|\       /|
| \  B  / |
|  \   /  |
|   \ /   |
| C  X    |
|   /     |
|  /   A  |
| /       |
|/________|

How would I calculate the normal at point X given triangles A, B, & C?
