I think the "engine room" as it were, for this is the intricate workings of the DNA/RNA, and nano machines and sequencies in the cell. the information in the DNA letters feed this development and constitution of the organism . there are, as has been noted, copying errors/mutations, and neo Darwinism claims that these can accidentally generate novel information to facilitate goo to you evolution. as I said earlier, no new information has, far as I know, demonstrated that this has happened

That is where I think we need more clarity, pete. Let us assume everyone here agrees with the first part: that DNA/RNA sequences define the mechanism to develop the organism. Now, what is your rule, looking at the DNA or RNA, for saying whether or not novel information has been added? We need a good definition of the 'amount' of information before we can say whether it has increased or decreased or stayed the same. Clearly, since each child is genetically different from their parents you can't simply look at whether the DNA is different.
