Fire Red/Leaf Green are remakes of the first generation games, as you probably know. Like partyatmygaff said, each game is separate so there's no consistent storyline if you get what I mean. You can start with whatever version and not ruin any previous storylines. There may be small little nods in the the game to previous versions but that's it really.

It's worth noting though that the game mechanics evolve so if you play Platinum, for example, you might get a little pissed off when you go back to Fire Red or Emerald and find that certain pokemon don't learn the same moves they did in platinum, or certain moves are not as effective as they used to be, or even just that certain evolutions and prevolutions of existing Pokemon aren't available.
I'm playing emerald at the moment though and I can't figure out why there's a Special Attack stat when the attacks aren't listed as Special or Physical types... Someone shine the Buzz-signal on Liberty Hall!
Also, since Platinum can import pokemon from the GB versions once you beat the E4 you might be glad of a well stocked GB cart or two 0 -
I'd also say start with LeafGreen first, as since you've been playing Yellow and Silver, the game mechanic changes aren't that much of a jump than if you were going to go straight into Platinum with all the new Pokés and the physical/special split.
Although the stories don't overlap, as everyone has said, best to go from lower gens to higher
