Isn't alien blood supposed to be green?

Isn't alien blood supposed to be green? ››
arXiv version of the paper submitted by Louis and Kumar to Astrophysics and Space Science on possible panspermia over India in 2001. Since being the cover story (now behind a paywall) in a recent edition of New Scientist, this has risen in prominence (e.g. at the time of writing it is top of Digg/Science). The paper has, according to the entry in arXiv, already been accepted for publication. I don't want to be dismissive but it's just a curiosity at the moment - a paper with anything strongly suggestive of extraterrestrial life seeding the Earth would probably not have to seek a home in a journal with 2002 Impact Factor of 0.383.
