If I can carve out time this week, I'll unzip everything, move directories around, and rezip them sans the xlate directory.

I just downloaded the lot of 'em (I2 between me and Gerry :) and took a quick look.

Most files extract into a subdirectory called "xlate". A few extract into the current directory.

Files have the same signature, so existing dbfawks work.

FIPS coded filenames aren't too friendly, but the zip files are named by state.

Polygons are not there.

There are a few minor changes in my neighborhood (literally) that appear to be corrections; I'll have to put a GPS trail down to be sure. I have no idea about the quality of data overall.

I'd recommend changing the filenames to include the state and county and eliminating that "xlate" subdirectory, and the polygons sure are nice to have around.
