So if an 8 ever hit in St. Louis, I would predict little to be left

New Madrid (epicenter) is pretty far from St. Louis.

No, it really is "if". Mw=8 quakes *in* St. Louis would be a complete
surprise. Mw=7.5 in New Madrid would not be, but the distance from the
epicenter would help a lot. Destruction would be widespread and lots of
people would die, but it wouldn't necessarily end civilization there as
we know it.
Which is what I was saying...St. Louis is not the same as New Madrid.
I'd like to see what experts are saying about St. Louis' risk of
earthquake damage.
