I'm with WaveWatcher. I see it all as waves on a medium. I don't think in terms of any unifying force. Instead there's a single source of energy, the perpetually moving waves between particles. The energy becomes a force when the waves interact with the particles, after all, the effect on particles is what we call force. So heat energy is a chaotic exchange of waves between particles. Electricity, electrons moving along a conductor, is when those waves are exchanged between partilces but in a more pass-the-buck fashion where the energy of the waves is passed from one electron to the next and then on to the next and so on down the conductor. But I haven't quite got a handle on the magnetic field yet. The particles have spin, which I think is a spherical rotation within the particles. Waves arrive at the particle, undergo spherical rotation, and then are emitted back out. I think this means that the resulting outward moving spherical wave would also have a component resulting from the spherical rotation and not be just a simple expanding spherical wave. When this wave, with some sort of rotational component in it, arrives at an electron, the rotational component interacts with the electron in a way that we see as induction. But I'm still fuzzy on that. I try to look for ways to tap into all these waves between the particles but have yet to think of a way of doing it. I have a particle creation idea but it falls short too, though since it's all I have at the moment I still pursue it. My fuzziness about the rotational (magnitic field) component still gives me hope. For the standard model, the equivalent of all this is looking at how to tap into the random pertubations between the particles i.e. quantum vacuum energy. But I find it easier to look at it as waves.
