Yep, same here -- literally hundreds, and several people have commented that they only see them shutting off when they're with me. That being said, I suspect that modern (e.g., sodium vapour) street lamps flicker off and on pretty regularly by themselves, and that some people are just more observant than others. I'd like to believe it's me, but...

(Radio static, too; my radio also fuzzed up when my dog walked/sat in certain spots, so I can't claim uniqueness there either.)
