Meat-eating plant found in Philippines!

This BBC Story should be an interesting story about a new discovery in nature. But for me and probably anyone else who's watched a life time of horror and sci-fi... OH SHIT MEAT EATING PLANTS OH SHIT!!! Now that we've found them, how long before they rapidly evolve to eat US?

The first link above is a story about how scientists have found meat-eating plants big enough to catch and digest small animals, first reported by ill-prepared missionaries trying to climb a mountain in 2000. The second link is about a Chicago scientist finding evidence for really rapid evolution due to man's influence on nature...I'll leave you to draw your own conclusions.

"Yes, Audrey, whatever you say..."
