I have found an amazing article due Amr El naschie (brother of M. S. Elnaschie) celebrating his brother.s 60th birthday.
The article is published in Chaos,Solitons and Fractals 25 (2005)767 -768 under the title Recollections.
Here are some short bits from the article
" ..But my brother believes that I suffer
from total lack of imagination and technological fatness because I do not change disciplines every 10 years. .."
".. I would
love to lock up the said colleague with Professor El Naschie,or ...,and reveal to the former that the latter was trained as a structural engineer,and is now a pinnacle of nuclear and particle physics,amongst other things."
" He,Mohamed,is indeed brilliant,but all those who will read my article know that already.He is versatile and is a
visionary,but these are characteristics that all those who meet him conclude that he enjoys."
"I continued though to say that
although I do not see Mohamed much,I admire him from a distance;whilst I could not afford the same admiration to
our middle brother Saiid,who really looked after me and helped me grow up. .."
"....When I was 17,I visited Mohamed in London,and followed this by a visit to Saiid in Edinburgh.There was a hot
competition between them regarding who would be able to convince me to leave the Medical School at Cairo University
and go into engineering;civil,like Mohamed,or chemical,like Saiid. "
"This was in 1973,the year my name appeared on a paper,with Mohamed,published in the Journal of the
American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics. "
"..Being Mohamed El Naschie's brother is a major responsibility!You are expected to be somewhat of a genius,which I certainly am not.OK,I still hold the dubious distinction of being the youngest full professor in Civil Engineering at Imperial College,London,and certainly the first,and hitherto the only,Middle Eastern full professor and Head of Section,but how high this stacks up next to the series of professor positions that Mohamed has piled up in four continents?.."
"I am inspired along the route
of publish or perish by Mohamed's publication record (journal papers in the hundreds)and the story of Thomas
Harriot..."
I have some doubts that Amr El naschie wrote this article.
This article is mentioned no where on his website https://netfiles.uiuc.edu/aelnash/www/index.htm.
The man should be proud to celebrate birthday of his brother who is considered as the most influential scientist in the history of man kind. One can even send e-mail to aelnash@uiuc.edu to get confirmation about his article.Reply | Report Abuse

Comments on the article of Amr El naschie
Of course M. S. El naschie is interested in every things and he can change his field every 10 years and may be every day. But how Amr Elnashie did know that his brother is a pinnacle of nuclear and particle physics,amongst other things.
Does he know what his brother has published in particle physics is non sense. It didn't happen to him to read by chance any of his brother's article to discover easily it is non sense. Did he discovered that in most of his brother's papers equations are not numbered. How he was sure that his brother is a really brilliant one, is that impression got by reading his trivial papers.
According to Amr El naschie
" I continued though to say that
although I do not see Mohamed much,I admire him from a distance; whilst I could not a ?ord the same admiration to
our middle brother Saiid,who really looked after me and helped me grow up."
---Why this prejudice against Saiid, can he give us more explanation.
Telling about professor's positions piled by El naschie in four continents? It is a favor to tell us where he got professor title.
you were admiring M. S. Elnaschie publishing record, do you know that he published few hundreds of non sense papers in CS&F where he was the editor in Chief abusing his editorial power.
The fraudulence of M. S. El naschie is evident even for non specialist.
Of course one should check if Amr El naschie has really written that article or not. Chaos,Solitons and Fractals 25 (2005)767 -768
