Using pure red + green with same overall colour intensity isn't good
for color-blindness, particularly since we're using a gray background

It'll take a little playing around to get a good colour pair which
works on a gray background, and is also color anomoly-safe. There's
a really neat DHTML webpage for just this purpose though

   http://www.colorjack.com/sphere/

I'd pick 'Complementary' or one of the 'Split Complementary' variants
and then drag around the dots till you find a pair of suitable colors,
which also look reasonably distinctive when you select the various
color anomologies.
