Bob,
I get
    {True,False,True}
    Or@@%
    Sequence@@%
    Or[%]

        {True,False,True}

        True

        True

        True

The second output is from Or@@<first output> = Or@@{{True,False,True} ->
Or[True,False,True] --> True
The third output is from Sequence@@<second output> = Sequence@@True --> True
(Apply acts on FullForms, compare f@@a)
The forth output is from Or[<third output>] = Or[True] --> True
