Geologists from the University of California Irvine and Arizona State University concluded that the largest quakes strike San Andreas every 45 to 144 years -- and the last big one was in 1857, over 150 years ago.
Fucking idiots. So they don't really happen every 45 to 144 years, they actually happen every 45 to X years since it's now been over 150. It's probably just a matter of the idiot reporter at Fox News leaving out the word "average." They sure do like to twist facts, especially when they can use them to scare people.
