ABSTRACT: A model universe is hypothesized where gravity is developed to take on the qualities of electrostatics. This necessarily breaks the Einstein Equivalence Principle where gravitational and inertial mass may vary. We are told that gravity and electromagnetism were unified in the earliest moments of the universe. Perhaps they are still unified today and the EEP is broken at the small scale. This paper shows a possible way how. For simplicity Newtonian Mechanics [1] are used throughout which means that formulae are only valid in the low mass, low speed limit. For high mass or high speed please refer to General Relativity [2]. Gravity is developed in the following sections: 1) Model A is attractive; standard physics. 2) Model AB is attractive/repulsive; Hermann Bondi [3]; 3) Model ABCD is likes vs opposites; non-standard physics. Also discussed is a new way of looking at Electron-Positron annihilation.
