Thanks everybody.

There is only a few places where the lines cross close enough that I
can't keep them at least a couple of inches apart so I ran one of the
wires through a short section of PVC pipe in those intersections.

We get a lot of statric in our phone lines. I always thought it was the
crappy service lines run to the house but now I am wondering if part of
the problem is where the phone line runs into the house within a few
feet of our electric breaker box.

Thanks again!
