How can you justify keeping "shorter oil change intervals" when the car burns 1qt/150-200mi like my coupe?

How recently? How hard have you been driving it? You did have a bad thermostat 
at some point not all that long ago didn't you? I seem to remember that.

I'd guess your carboned up rings are starting to let go of the carbon resulting 
in them seating badly as the carbon comes off unevenly. In which case the 
solution is to drive it like you stole it and keep shorter oil change intervals 
until it clears up.
