  I don't completely understand your answer Lee. Questions inline below 
preceeded by --.
   
  Thanks

  Actually, neither.  Coupling doesn't have any benefit.  If you can spread
  the traces out so there is no coupling, you've got the best geometry. 
   
  --You mean no coupling between traces so effectively simple stripline or 
microstrip, right?
   
   Real
  world, you can't do this and route a PCB, so route side by side with as
  much separation as your topology will allow.  Then adjust trace widths to
  give you 100 ohm diff impedance. 
   
  --Meaning route with wide seperation initially to force large spacing from 
possible victim traces but then go back to a 100 Ohm spacing? Is thinking here 
that you might as well route with 100 diff impedance even though it doesn't 
improve performance? Seems to conflict with statement above.
