Face Shield Fog?

So I have a full-face helmet, an HJC, I believe--not sure, I'll have to check when I get home from work. Anyway, the face shield stays nice and clear when I'm riding (vents open) but it fogs up when I'm sitting at a red light for any length of time. My workaround has been to lift the visor at traffic lights then put it back down when I get up to speed and my face starts to freeze. This can get monotonous when I'm having one of those days when I'm hitting all the red lights. Anything else I can try? Or are there helmets that are better ventilated and don't have as much of a problem with this?

Ok, well I finally got around to installing the Pinlock lens this past weekend. Took a little ride to a notoriously long red light. The area was more or less deserted so there were no cars to come along and trip the sensor for me. I sat...and sat...and sat. Eventually I just wound up running the gee-golly light (legal if you don't get caught). But while I was sitting there my face shield did not fog up at all! My glasses did a little but nearly as heavily as the face shield used to. And they cleared immediately when I started to roll. I haven't tried them at night yet but the thing is easy enough to remove and re-install I guess I can do that if need be. All in all, I have to say it works.
