 I thought I complained about this before, but can't find the ticket.

 Here is the scenario --

 I'm trying to load up all these files:
 http://www.mass.gov/anf/research-and-tech/it-serv-and-support/application-
 serv/office-of-geographic-information-massgis/datalayers/mbtabus.html

 Of which two are dbf only because they are just basic attribute related to
 the shp.  So what do I do, I choose filter .dbf (because all files have a
 dbf).

 I also choose to spatial index, because I want the shapefiles spatially
 index.

 And what do I get

 All I can say is no duh.
