"The following presents a fast algorithm for volume computation of a simple, closed, triangulated 3D mesh."
- we are presented something
"I would be (pleasantly) surprised if the algorithm is novel. Further research after posting reveals the paper Efficient Feature Extraction for 2D/3D Objects in Mesh Representation by Cha Zheng and Tsuhan Chen, which appears to describe the same algorithm, although the derivation is different. It was fun while it lasted!"
- there was an initial expectation, though slim, that it may be novel. then on the discovery that it wasn't, related fun time was insinuated to be over.

are we reading the same text?
