IN my case its really simple. I started tinkering with Bradsoft's Top Style, CSS editor. The first time I used it, I downloaded a style sheet off a site, it was totally in abbreviated style, and I couldn't understand any of it. So just for the hell of it, I hit the Top Style 'stylesweeper', and bingo! Everything was nicely laid out. That's how I continue to layout my styles.
But I don't think it matters a damn, as long as it's syntactically correct, and the people who have to work on it can understand what it's all doing.

Forgive me for sounding grumpy, but I think this sort of thing can go on too long. We are not talking about standards or best practices now, we are talking about personal preferences. Whitespace inside a declaration block is ignored - so it can be used to lay out rules or rules sets in any way you want. It comes down to personal or production team choice.
