Cold Start Issue Finally Resolved! Bad Thermo

For about a year now I've been having cold start issues during cold weather and have been posting on this board for advice. Well finally after realizing that my thermostat was bad (it must have been bad for the past year, just seemed to get worse this winter) I replaced that and low and behold, the cold start issue seems to be gone. Someone suggested that if the engine never heats up to normal temperature the computer can get screwed up, so I'm assuming that's what it was. If I let the car idle until the temperature got up to normal temperature with the bad thermo, it would start right up when I came back and it was cold. Otherwise it wouldn't fire. So I figured I'd just post to see if anyone else has had this issue and for those experiencing cold start problems similar to mine. Thanks to everyone who tried to help!
