The first part consists of a few give me a break poems that include pictures of my tree-climbing dog.

The second part is the whole reason for publication.
It consists of my path to a new physics based on the work of James Clerk Maxwell. It provides an Exact-Numbers Core to a new pragmatic Maxwell-based physics.
Maxwell described his work in electricity and magnetism as an effort to understand the medium in which our physical reality exists. I refer to this medium as the Maxwell Medium, MaxM.

My path to the new physics, from the late 1990s to the present, includes:
Maxwell's dimensions of Newton's gravitational constant G.
Maxwell's dimensions of mass.
Maxwell's pragmatic mathematics of electricity and magnetism. (The solid engineering base for over a century.)

I show that this path has lead to an unanticipated Exact-Numbers Core, thus the Encore of Maxwell-based Encore Physics.
