@Donmeister85, here is that screen shot of my wife's phone. Notice there is "4" offscreen notifications waiting the in toolbar... Thats just what she received over night! LOL...
She has had worse than this but I haven't gotten any of those screen shots... I will have to get one when she's in landscape mode with the entire status bar completely full.. LOL...
In her defense, she is an active student in a masters of nursing program and also involved in many many online nursing related groups on Twitter and Linked In so she gets more than the normal persons amount of email and constant notifications.
