I used to give the shell prompts different colours on different machines to help avoid this. Or rather, the local one would always be the same colour, but shells under ssh sessions were colour-coded by machine. I've lost the script I wrote for this somewhere in the mists of time (if I remember right, it was copied and hacked from a bash prompt example that colour-coded according to the login type: ssh, telnet, local, etc.) Someday I might get round to recreating it...
