Regarding conditional comments to include other CSS: I find it
annoying. Here is why. When I declare a class like div.header

realize that IE6 is 3 px off, and I cant figure out why. And my boss is
pressuring me to move on. I want to define the hack or override for CSS
-next- to the original class. Putting it in a ie6.css file doesnt allow
me to keep the classes together and organized.

I can see the point, but: The approach of separating style sheets has
important advantages.
* Once you/your company decides to completely drop support for IE 6,
instead of searching through a style sheet and removing hack by hack,
you can simply go along, delete one style sheet and have a cup of coffee
(or a beer maybe). Imagine how clean you'd feel then :-)
* Keep the basic style sheet for standards compliant browsers smaller.
Why deliver hacks for a dinosaur browser to browsers that shouldn't see
that crap at all?
I hate hacks too, but we can't live without'em.
