I don't use any techniques. Usually I say something about the immediate surroundings, situations, something neutral (Do you know if.../ How long.../ Are you here for/ Nice weather ..) Very often the conversation progresses to other topics as well.

This happens to me a lot as well Especially with elderly people, and usually on public transport. It's fascinating really
There are interesting situations, just the other day:
Man: You look familiar. Are you ''John's'' daughter, from...?
Tanja: No, John is not my father.
Man: Yes, yes he is. (Here he tells me the story of how he met my father John, who is not my father )
