Because other non-Motorola facebook users have NOT complained about the 
problem.  Isn't it a function of the hardware to obey the commands of 
the user?  I guess it could be google's fault too, but I'm not going to 
hold my breath until I get help from google.

BUT I found a solution by accident -- I moved a lot of apps, including 
facebook, to the external card last night.  When I turned the phone on 
this morning there were NO facebook notifications.  SCORE!
