Goo to you
I believe the full phrase is 'From goo to you via the zoo' and it is extensively used, and I assume coined, by Jonathan Sarfati.

Re: Goo to you
Doesn't make much sense, does it? I mean absolutely none of the organisms common to human ancestry would be found in any of today's zoos.

Re: p=0,01
"Can lead" or lead? What "new species" do you have on mind? Has it name?
Well, a commonly-cited list is this:
Observed Instances of Speciation
and this:

Re: p=0,01
I see there Drosophila at your links. One would say that drosophila could have hade some great evolutionary history if new species can be bred ad hoc in 8 years only. Yet it is not the case - genus Drosophila is old, it arose during Eocene.
Also according anti-darwinian evolutionist Pierre Grasse:

The fruitfly (drosophila melanogaster), the favorite pet insect of the geneticists, whose geographical, biotropical, urban, and rural genotypes are now known inside out, seems not to have changed since the remotest times.

Speciation isn't the same thing as morphological change, so your comments don't make any sense.

You can't keep a good fly down.
genus Drosophila is old, it arose during Eocene.
Indeed and it is now constituted of something like 1,400 species. Not too shabby really since the class Mammalia only has something like 5,800 extant species and arose during the Triassic.
