Eric gives the same reason I would choose the filesystem.  You can put
the files in a location where they can be served directly by the web
server.  This is definitely preferrable if there is no reason to need
webapp managed security on the stylesheets.  Then again, caching of the
stylesheet by the browser may make this not such an issue.  If it makes
sense for other reasons to put the file in a db, do it.  Otherwise the
fs is a better choice.
