I'd suggest separate cables to separate grounds with as much separation 
as you can manage between the cables, so that a strike to one doesn't 
necessarily kill everything attached to the other. It's not for sure 
that it'll work as intended, but it seems like a good idea to stack the 
deck as best you can.
