Guys,
I called up the earthquake guys today, and they told me about their study which has now been completed:
http://www.ig.utexas.edu/outreach/dr_earthquake/index.htm
There is a lot of information on this site.
One interesting thing I learned: be careful of being in a building that has a garage underneath, as many apartment complexes here are constructed. With the sideways shaking of the quakes, those tend to come down pretty quickly.
