 Simple, it's not a kml file.

 (Hint: try unzipping it)

 Please be careful with bulk imports, I read on one of your diary posts that
 you messed up the Mines import when following a similar process...

It looks like gpsbabel doesn't support the full range of kml options (or 
the NOAA have seriously messed up their file!)

I think mass replacing wsr with Placemark should work... (No 
guarantees)
