This is a roundabout way of getting there (I got there by accident),  
but the National Atlas has a counties shapefile that's different from  
the NOAA counties shapefile.  I use Nat'l Atlas for drawing maps and  
the NOAA version for alerts.

Shapefiles are at nationalatlas.gov, and a dbfawk to start tinkering  
with can be found at
