Wrong. You started out advocating the notion that mutations diminish the information in the genome.

I demonstrated that was not so, which you more or less acknowledged.

Then you wanted examples of increasing the information by mutation.

I mentioned a couple of items that I remember teaching in a basic college biology class. If it happens you didn't learn it, why not try google? Or ask politely?
