Okay mops[...]: Before this conversation starts chasing itself around in circles, please provide a succinct explanation of how you are using "information". In order to answer your question concerning examples of "information being added to a species", I need to understand explicitly which definition you're using (e.g., Fisher, Shannon, Seiffert, Nauta, Chaitan, Titze, Perry, etc etc), because the answer to your question depends on it. Please be as specific as possible as to the context in which you are using the term. Especially since talking about information at the level of species (rather than individual DNA strand or genome, for instance), there are quite a few definitions that won't apply.
post, not yours.
