Not quite: in the file you sent, "This is a the top of an Org-mode 
file." is not included in the tangled file.   Also, in the slightly
expanded version of your example I'm attaching, the high-level comments
at the top of the file are not included.  Also, when I nest another 
headline inside "Headline 1", only the content of that headline --
not of Headline 1 -- is included.

I'm attaching the current result of tangling, as well as what I ideally 
want.  example-idea.el was produced by doing an ASCII export, then 
commenting everything in it except the code blocks.  The resulting file
is both fully executable and contains everything from the original org 
file, so it stands on its own and is independent of Emacs/Org.

Thanks for help,

ilya
