“...all the genetic information which ever has or ever will exist has been there from the beginning”.

Interesting hypothesis.

But not all that clear. What do you mean by this?

And how does it fit in or be testable with the subject of the post: that DNA that codes also acts as recognition sites for regulatory molecules?

What I mean is that genetic information is not "created" by random mutation. The information is always out there ready to emerge as necessary to insure the survival of the "kinds" of life created by the Creator. I was not addressing the mechanics dealt with by the article but responding to an issue raised (ie. theistic evolution) by another poster. The specifics of the article merely confirm that we have merely scratched the surfact of how DNA and genetic information works and we still have much to learn. Interesting that nobody talks about "junk" DNA anymore. "Junk" ended up being just a term used to describe stuff we hadn't figured out yet. Just like "dark energy" is used in cosmological terms.
