I cranked up the damping so that the droplets don't bounce any more. 
Unfortunately, it also retards horizontal motion. :-P

As it turns out, mechsim *does* support attractive forces between 
particles, but this thing renders slowly enough as is (13 hours, 39 
minutes, and 49 seconds for this sequence).

That said, eliminating the bouncing does *wonders* for making this look 
like an actual fluid. Good call!
