Yeah, Mary, that's a good point. I think one of the reasons I found it confusing was because when George discussed finding "The Hollywood version" in his previous post, he talked about summarizing the story this way, "man is rejected, then gets accepted." And, he identified that as the larger meaning of the individual elements of the story.

Yes, i can understand the confusion. "Man is rejected, then gets accepted" is the "why" of the story--the purpose for writing it in the first place. The pulses are the "hows," as in "how it came to pass that the man was rejected and then accepted." I don't mean to speak for George here, but that's how I understand it.
I see your point. I think I mistook, "Man is rejected, then gets accepted" as something internal, but it isn't. It's an overview of an external thing that happened to the man.
