I assume you'll graciously accept a co-recipient on your Nobel prize. LeSage, in the late 1700's, came up with the "push" model of gravity. Gives the correct inverse square relationship. Unfortunately, you have to explain why things keep moving (ie. have inertia) under this continual bombardment.
Personally, I prefer the polarizable vacuum theory.

under this continual bombardment. You are not under continual bombardment. You are expelling energy continuously. You are continually bombarding your environment.
And, as long as the rate of bombardment is equally distributed around your entire surface area, and as long as the speed of the energy particles is very high compared to your own speed, then I don't see how inertia would be impacted.
However, it might explain some of the predicted behaviors at speeds near c as your "gravitons" start to build up in the direction you are travelling.
Shalom.

I'm still trying to get an answer from the auto repair place on why they charged my wife for a FULL bottle of turn-signal blinker fluid, when the diagnostic printout only showed the tank to be HALF empty!
