This is what burnt you:

> setenv CLICOLOR_FORCE 1

That's an incredibly dangerous setting; whoever suggested making it
a system-wide default is an idiot. See "man ls":

CLICOLOR_FORCE Color sequences are normally disabled if the output isn't
directed to a terminal. This can be overridden by set-
ting this flag. The TERM variable still needs to refer-
ence a color capable terminal however otherwise it is not
possible to determine which color sequences to use.
