No, but I grant you permission to worship at my feet.

Will you marry me?
The expense of film is what used to keep photography in a quality over quantity type mindset. When I went digital without realising it I would go out and snap off 400 average photos and be proud of my effort. It wasn't until a few months later going through a film album that I realised my new stuff was rubbish. These days even when I go on a trip, I will snap 20-30 photos, and they'd be of much higher calibre than back when I just started with a digital.
Someone who goes out and takes 900 photos is not a photographer, even if a few of the photos are good, and especially if all 900 were kept. The problem with the internet, blogs, flickr, myspace etc. is that people think that other's want to read their crap opinions. I know, I fell into that trap a while ago. After which I promptly erased all but the technical content on my site and stopped google from crawling it so that those who were interested could use it as a reference.
GET OUT WHILE YOU STILL CAN!
I dont see the problem. She said she took 900 pictures during the course of her vacation and would be posting some soon.
I did a wedding and too over 500. I do model shots in 3 hours that consistently run over 300.
A trip, give or take 10 days I would assume, is plenty of time to take 900 intended photographs. Assuming a 10 hour per day awake time, that is 9 photographs every hour, or one every 6 minutes. Now we don't even know what she was photographing, let's say it was a Safari, she would be snapping several dozen pictures a minute in certain situations, wouldn't she?
Now, if she posts all 900, or even considers half of them printable... there is a problem!
And what happened to the concept of memories that exist separate from photographs?
