Over time, one way to prepare would be to replace or reinforce all those brick buildings, before a quake steps in and does that for us.

Keep in mind as well, that this rung the whole plate, not like the relatively itty-bitty quake that spawned the Tsunami last year (and detectibly altered the earth's shape and rotation). The last time the New Madrid fault wnet, it threw the Mississippi several miles...then an aftershock threw it again. The earthquake was felt a thousand miles away.
