This may sound like mere posturing, (I can even hear Mr. Abian now, "you don't understand it so you call it electromagnetism"), but electromagnetism was proved in the 1920s by a man whose name begins with K that temporarily escapes me to actually be gravity operating in 5 dimensions. Let me put that another way. Gravity (relativistically speaking) is a distortion of the space-time continuum. If you extend that continuum to 5 dimensions, you get electromagnetism, which causes the two negative charges to repel. There is no need to resort to these Status Quos and Provokers and Provokees which are unclear, undefined, un-backed-up by mathematics, unpredictive, unscientific, and (I must admit) rapidly becoming more and more uninteresting. I'm sorry if the science in this post is muddled. If you like, I will email you with a better description, or perhaps someone with more knowledge and better communication skills will oblige us with a translation.
