An additional trick I noticed in my neighborhood it to shine a spotlight at
the offending street light sensor.  That will sometimes shut them off for a
bit.

BTW-- The skies are dark here about 5-10 minutes from town in 3 directions.
Any nearby Rocky Mountain area members are welcome to email me for specific
sites.
I hope I am able to get out and capture some with Olympus 35SPn, OM1n
w/50f1.4, and my trusty (no flames please) Yashica Lynx 14E (45mm f/1.4).
