Location confusion[for me,or the other person strongly associated with this post:M]?

What and when are these changes happening?

I woke up this morning to attend early-morning needs,and I was awestruck!!!Immediate recognition:I am home in India,but when did this geographical truth get realized:I was in Turkey (Istanbul) just recently,but now I'm in namma Chennai???As happy as I am to return to my roots,this had to be sorted out,but hopefully other people would see what their desired (and correct,no correct,only) orientations were,without being prompted.Sadly,this latter happened this morning,when there was a brief discussion of what certain technical terms meant in my thesis[Active Control of Performance and Vibratory Loads using Leading-Edge Slats],which encapsulated thy research work I have done in the field of helicopters(rotorcraft),to add active surfaces to the blades [called slats],to achieve a certain goal.

So why am I so cut up this early in the morning?

There was an extended discussion,led by(maybe sole participated by)my brother,who studies(and teaches,in Istanbul) mathematics.I just felt,if the queries were related to my field,I'd answer them,and try to give as extensive an explanation as needed,and considered proper in academia.Now if the carping(sorry this crude word is used,but happening as early in the day as it does and is as representative of disbelief as it is)stops and correct (and acceptable,dealing with the same subject,at least tangentially) {technical}questions are posed,I'd be propelled to clarify any legitimate queries,no matter how early.OK,he went through the draft of my thesis and had formed an opinion,but the manner of conveyance was self-defeating.It came across as bitter and rudely expectant.Those stay my words on the subject.
