Particles currently only interact with the ground plane setting in the
particle modeler. That's ground as far as they are concerned, nothing
else exists.
You might want to model with metaballs, make a population of them, and
then see if they will work, you might be able to have something going
with physics, but there've been several threads about how to do this
with the minimum of effort.
