With respect, I disagree.

Green and khaki only came to the fore during the late 1970's as 
manufacturers tried to reduce silver content in response to growing 
environmental concerns and no doubt to bump profits. After Bunker Hunt 
cornered the silver market and paper prices doubled overnight in the early 
80's, silver content was reduced to the point where khaki<>olive drab was 
inescapable, and, as you say, repulsive. RC papers were worst of all.
