good eye , there
Are you crossed eye?
Where are any of these numbers adding up?
Nothing adds up to these 'totals'
Stop giving kudos before you scrutinize.

Many people here ready to bash the poor fellow seem not to be able to read his OP with understanding -
he compares both Aprils form the last and present year. Not years, not some strange number prophecies.
Moreover he presents his sources, however shrtly, but don't be lazy and check the both sources he mentions and it is correct.
Thank you OP and boy, some of you guys... just wow.

Number of Earthquakes Worldwide for 2000 - 2012
USGS
7.0 to 7.9 in 2011 there were 19, it's at 4 right now ( 2012), was 14 in 2000
Note:
Starting in January 2009, the USGS National Earthquake Information Center no longer locates earthquakes smaller than magnitude 4.5 outside the United States, unless we receive specific information that the earthquake was felt or caused damage.
I don't think we have time for any BS so please, without distorting the data or selectively choosing which M6.2 should be deleted from the list, show me I'm wrong.

Something seems wrong here, what do you think?
Better get your bug out bag ready.
This is getting VERY real now.

What distortion of data?
What M6.2?
What are you talking about?

Indeed... I was trying not to put too sharp a point on things for the OP here but I would think back to the thread I had at the start of this funhouse we're calling 2012 and the noted need to keep our heads as the year progresses. I think we're seeing why more and more as things unfold. Earthquakes, Tornadoes and more and we're not even 6 months in....
SO much is yet to come and yet to happen.....in my opinion. Well... You put it far more directly than I was trying to..but you make the point better by it. Indeed.... The sky isn't falling and if we get excited now...we'll be all burned out by the time events really do demand we take almost instant action to reports we're reading.

It is not distorted or selected data. It is the USGS earthquake catalog. It includes all recorded earthquakes of 3.1 and greater.
4+: 585
5+: 64
6+: 7
7+: 1

As I said in my first post, these are the numbers for April 2011. You can compare them to your numbers for 2012 or, if you wish, run your own database search.

What?
Why the hell would I run numbers to verify YOUR figures or data?

Just some advice and recommendations for your next thread:
1) ALWAYS provide links to the source of your data that people can click on.
2) If providing a matrix of numbers, be careful how you present the numbers. The way you had this data tabulated, I too thought you were speaking for a whole year from 2011 to 2012, and the number total of quakes did not add up for me either. It wasn't until I went back and carefully read what you posted that I was what you were trying to post (a lot of us skim when reading, to just get the idea of the thread).
3) Avoid using these words: Absolute, Proof, No Denying, Can Not Debunk, etc, etc. Those words will just invite attacks on your thread.
Your information was interesting to me, and I'd never visited the RSOE site before, so thanks for that.
And remember:
Be polite.
Be efficient.
And always have a plan to kill everyone you meet.

I have decided that I don't like you. Your arrogance is astounding. You don't even give us a link to your data's source. You accuse someone of selective data mining right before you admit that your data set is incomplete and
selected. We find our own source in lieu of one provided by you and you say that the USGS is unreliable. You tell us not to poke holes before we scrutinize. What? I thought that poking holes is scrutinizing data.
You make my head hurt just a bit.
