CSS compilers and converting IE hacks to conditional css

Skip to bottom for question, but first, a little context. So I have been looking into CSS compilers (like Sass & Less) for a while, and have been really interested in them, not because they help me understand anything easier (I've been doing css for a couple of years now) but rather they cut down on cruft and help me see things easier. ...

Use any CSS compiler (Sass, Less) to generate the selector
