So, any ideas David ?

I am not sure to understand what are you saying... right hand - left hand rules.. if you see the values of the X vertices, they are increasing, from 0 to 1.
That should be ok from my point of view. I tried to use a smaller set of vertices and it works. I am missing something here...

Thus, you are looking at the back of your polygon, rather than the front. It is pretty important with polygons that you get the normal facing the viewer.
