I don't like the unannounced arrival of earthquakes....

I will take tornado any day over an earthquake, we get some warning in advance:) In the last 50 years in the U.S., how many people have been killed and how many houses destroyed by tornadoes compared to earthquakes? I live in San Diego too and I'll take an earthquake any day over a tornado. If it is gonna kill me I'd rather have an earthquake hit and kill me fast instead of the tornado warning and the waiting for it before it kills me.
