If you don't "get sass", please take a couple minutes to read the article -- if you've never had to live the life of a front-end engineer, you have no idea how hard it is to do that job with the tool that is CSS. Balancing browser support, design, and constantly changing requirements is hard. Doing it without a form of abstraction at your disposal is lunacy. I would also like to point out that this post is not an advertisement for compass or even Sass. It's a rebuttal to the people who think any advancement in stylesheet technology is unnecessary. Sass is an implementation of these ideas and compass shows their power in action. But it really is an argument for a new approach.
