Speaking of the amount of light, the VT-100 has an inverse video mode.  
I used to flip back and forth every few days, just to break the 
monotony.  Since I was the only one doing this, I also used to put all 
our terminals in the reverse video mode on weekends, to offset burn-in.. 
Heh.

Today's LCD/LED terminal emulators have been much easier on my eyes, and 
I've stayed in the dark mode for some years now.
