Unscrupulous or just a glitch?

Don't give up, I had the same issue 7/8 ready except for SAI. When I took it to a Indy they reset it as well but claimed they didn't. I drove in as I checked with my cheapy code reader just prior and drove almost 500 mi. Frustrated, I finally came across a thread where a guy did a cold start and immediately reved to 2700/2800 rpm during the entire 90 Sec during a cold start. He claimed it worked. Being the skeptic but having nothing much to loose at this point as my emission check was 2 mo overdue I tried it in the evening after it sat all day and without driving it it went ready right in the garage. Next day off to Smog check and big relief! So this driving cycle I don't give much credence to.
