hehe, cool. this is exactly what i tried once, too. the waveform of this 
approach looks similar to the original sound somehow, but it doesn't sound 
similar :-(
i think two things could be optimized:
- a minimum delay between pulses would avoid low frequency parts (two or 
more subsequently following pulses form one 'fat' pulse).
- the shape of the pulses could be designed using a FIR-filter
- other ideas?
