Grass is actually pretty good, not that I use it. However, I do have a colleague who has a script which pick a "random" colour theme for each new terminal, one of which is pretty close to the "grass" theme.

His script isn't truly random, but it does contain maybe twenty themes or so. During a normal day, he's working in 10+ terminals on various servers. The colours and placement of the terminals helps him to remember which server he's working on. So colours are only there to provide visual glue to help him determine the environment he's on, rather than being a personal preference for some theme. It doesn't matter that the grass theme is ugly, it's just the green terminal window which is currently an ssh session the stage database server.
