Dear Zvi,

If you want a list (of lists), presently in the form
of 

myList = {{0,1},{0,1},{0,1},{0,1}}

to become the sequence of lists,
{0,1},{0,1},{0,1},{0,1}

you can try

Apply[Sequence,myList]

also expressed as

Sequence@@myList

So, in your particular case, try

Sequence@@Table[ {0,1}, {30}]
