I did find several examples where we lucked out and have been able to witness speciation due to a fortunate location of a mutation, resulting in "instant" or exceptionally rapid speciation:

Informed creationists have long pointed out that the biblical model of earth history would not only allow for the possibility of one species splitting into several (without the addition of new information, thus not ‘evolution’ as commonly understood), but would actually require that it must have happened much faster than evolutionists would expect.

My desire for examples of speciation was as it relates to evolution, not devolution or splitting. These examples demonstrate changes in existing code that did not lead to new biological systems (More frequent blue screens of death, not less frequent). Great Danes don't mate with Chihuahua. Most of your examples would call them different species.

Observe from your article:

(Test for speciation: sterile offspring and lack of interbreeding affinity.)

(Test for speciation in this case is by morphology and lack of natural interbreeding. These fish have complex mating rituals and different coloration. While it might be possible that different species are inter-fertile, they cannot be convinced to mate.)

(Test for speciation in this case is based on morphology. It is unlikely that forced breeding experiments have been performed with the parent stock.)

I know, I know, you can't show me examples of new systems. Those take to much magic time to be observed.

Psa 1:1 Blessed [is] the man that walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor standeth in the way of sinners, nor sitteth in the seat of the scornful.

If you keep your eyes on the science over the next few years, you will begin to notice how Creationist scientists are taking the raw data and coming up with an entirely new model for our existence. Based on Science. There is a growing number of scientists coming out of the closet who have a desire to put in the hands of a revised educational establishment, a systematic alternative view of the data. As these think tanks organize, the school boards and parents of America will use capitalism to shut down the socialistic oriented education establishment. Dark Ages, Pseudo-science, think again.

The momentum has shifted, and is unstoppable. Homeschooling and the eventual implementation of vouchers is changing the landscape of our scientific horizons.
