I had some time to think about this tonight and came up with one
potential solution. The modified script outputs one "All Rules" master
list containing a list of all rules and their properties except the
conditions. Then for each rule, the script creates another "Rule n
Conditions" file - one for each rule, containing a list of all
conditions for a given rule. So you end up with something like this:

All Rules.csv
Rule 1 Conditions.csv
Rule 2 Conditions.csv
Rule 3 Conditions.csv
Rule 4 Conditions.csv
Rule 5 Conditions.csv 
...and so on
