    I had an evolutionist biologist tell me that new information could be added through polyploidal mutations and successive mutations. What’s wrong with this?

Gene duplication, polyploidy, insertions, etc. do not help the evolutionary cause. While they represent an increase in amount of DNA, they do not constitute an increase in the amount of functional genetic information—these create nothing new. Molecules-to-man evolution needs new genes (for making feathers on reptiles, for example).
Also, I think if the question raised by Einstein's Gulf is a valid one, then it deserves to be answered regardless of the purported proof of evolution. If we assume that evolution is true, then why don't we try to explain this idea?

Please enlightment on what you are refering to as 'Eistein's Gulf'.
